Beach Sessions at the New Jersey shore.

The Jersey Shore and Vacation. The TOP vacation area in New Jersey, is the Jersey Shore. In fact, our state’s economy relies on people vacationing at the Jersey Shore.

In 2019, 116 million visitors spent $46.4 BILLION in New Jersey. Visitors generated $5.1 billion in state and local taxes, which is equivalent to $1,580 in tax savings for every household in New Jersey. We all know we won’t get those tax savings back.
