Brick brings together a range of options for a stay: the sandy beach on the Metedeconk River at Windward Beach Park, motorized water recreation, golf at Forge Pond, and a museum with a historic section dating to 1827. These topics appeal to different interests. When planning your trip, first consider whether you would rather include time in the park, water sports, golf or local history. The museum also has a limited seasonal schedule, which you should take into account when choosing your dates.
Water at Windward Beach Park and the Marina
Windward Beach Park has a sandy beach on the Metedeconk River. The park also includes a playground, picnic areas and a large fishing pier. The beach and pier give the park a clear connection to the water and fishing, while the playground and picnic areas offer additional options. This means you can choose among different interests within the park: the waterfront, fishing or spending time in the park’s other areas.
Traders Cove Marina offers direct access to motorized water recreation. This sets it apart from the park features mentioned above: Windward Beach Park offers a sandy beach, fishing pier and picnic areas, while the marina focuses on motorized water sports. So when comparing waterfront options, you can weigh waterfront and park activities against motorized recreation.
Golf at Forge Pond
Ocean County Golf Course at Forge Pond is a par-60 executive golf course located in a 300-acre nature preserve. These two details describe different aspects of the offering: par 60 classifies the course, while the acreage refers to the nature preserve where it is located. The fairways challenge experienced golfers and give beginners the opportunity to improve their game. This describes different perspectives on the same offering: a challenge for experienced golfers and an opportunity for beginners to develop their game.
