The Bayshore
8 towns · Raritan Bay towns with Manhattan on the horizon.
The Bayshore runs the Raritan Bay edge of Monmouth County, Keyport to the Highlands bluffs, with the Manhattan skyline on the horizon the whole way. It trades boardwalks for marinas, party-boat fishing, and the commuter ferry out of Atlantic Highlands. Keansburg still runs a working amusement park on the bay.
