Jenkinsons is a popular beach break located in Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey, fronting the well-known boardwalk and amusement area. The spot offers forgiving, rolling waves over a sandy bottom, making it a favorite for beginners and longboarders, though fall swells from the Atlantic can push wave quality up a notch for intermediate surfers. Its east-facing orientation means it picks up ESE to NE swells well, and the sandy bottom shifts seasonally to produce punchy peaks when conditions align.
