Best Vintage Beaches
A few of our favorite (and rapidly disappearing) vintage beaches.
Myrtle Beach, SC With family-friendly throwbacks like a boardwalk, classic amusement park, and miniature golf courses, the more than 60 miles of beach are only one asset of this coastal town.
Asbury Park, NJ Although this classic beach is a long way from its heyday, and your chances of catching the Boss or the E Street Band are pretty slim, Asbury Park is worth visiting for a peek into summers of the past with its classic architecture, long boardwalk, and kitschy charm.
Wildwood, NJ Since the 1950s, hordes of summerers from Philadelphia and Southern Jersey have flocked to Wildwood’s space-age motels and boardwalk, hosting a veritable pleasure island of games, amusement parks, and shops.
