1 / 3Jenkinson's Amusement Park
📍 Point Pleasant Beach, NY
Boardwalk amusement park at Point Pleasant Beach with rides, an aquarium, arcades, and beach access. New Patriot's Run family roller coaster added recently. Seasonal events include Princess Palooza, Movies on the Beach, and Easter programming.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with toddlers and kids under 10 who want a clean, low-key boardwalk experience rather than a high-stimulus theme park. The venue actively maintains a family atmosphere with visible security presence. Teens looking for thrill rides will find the selection sparse.

“Everything is clean and new, not sleezy like other boardwalks. It's great for kids, toddlers and parents. Teens should find somewhere else to go. There wasnt any litter and no lines on a Saturday night in September. Most employees went above and beyond , like the ticket booth boy and train woman and signalmen. Not expensive if you limit 1 kid to 2 or 3 rides. They canceled the fireworks and should have notified customers via signs, website and Facebook. Parking fills up fast and isn't cheap. Neither is the aquarium or food.”

“Great place for family fun. It is very clean and well maintained with nice people working in all of the various places, food, drinks of all kinds and lots of fun at the games of chance. There is something for everyone, young and old alike. Can't wait to go back.”

Overview
Jenkinson's Boardwalk runs a full lineup of rides scaled for young children, a dedicated aquarium, arcade games, and direct beach access. The venue books birthday parties and runs recurring seasonal events throughout the year. Reviewers consistently describe it as cleaner and calmer than competing Jersey Shore boardwalks, with most employees praised for going above expectations. The new Patriot's Run roller coaster gives older kids a step up from the toddler rides.
