Disclosure: Our family received complimentary admission.
We had the pleasure of visiting Jenkinson’s Boardwalk last Saturday. On that morning, the weather was iffy. There was a chance of storms in the forecast throughout the day but we decided to head to the shore anyway. It was drizzling when we arrived, so our first stop was Jenkinson’s Aquarium, which is perfect for a rainy day or a super hot day on the boardwalk.
Jenkinson’s has a fantastic variety of sea life to see; we always enjoy ourselves there. The kids loved everything, from the turtles to the seals, but they probably spent the most time near the touch tank.
I was enamored with the moon jellies. Couldn’t you just sit and watch this for hours?
We spent a few hours at the aquarium before heading out for lunch. Here are my little penguins on our way out. See those smiles? Evidence of time well spent!
Since it was raining on and off until we left, we didn’t get to enjoy the beach or the bath house, but the weather improved enough for the rides so we headed over just when they opened at noon.
It was then when I realized just how lucky we were to get this cloudy day on the boardwalk. The clouds kept the crowds away and we were not too hot running from ride to ride.
After the rides, we were able to muster up a bit more energy for a game of mini golf.
We had such a fun time visiting Jenkinson’s Boardwalk, and we can’t wait to return this summer!

I would love to take my family of 5! Saving money for a family of 5 is hard to come by with one income! Always looking for fun things to do! Thanks!
I would love to take my 4 year old son to see the aquarium and ride the rides – and play at the beach of course! We’ve been to the ocean, but he’s never experienced a Boardwalk yet and I know it would be the “Best Day Ever!” For him.
I would go with my family! We love going to the beach and love the rides and games there!
I would love to win – looks like a great day to spend the day
I’d take my family, along with my father. My mother just passed away and bringing my dad would be a great day out for him to enjoy some rides and good fun with us and his grandkids! We love Jenks!
I’m so sorry to hear that Colleen.
I would take my family. I love watching my daughter smile on every ride.
I’d take my family, I love the aquarium there!
We have never been to Jenks but would love to visit! Looks awesome
I absolutely love Jenks… I’m here right now! We come up and visit NJ every day. If I won, I’d treat my parents and brothers to an amazing day on the beach… they’ve been bringing me here for 22 years, I think I owe it to them! :D
We haven’t been, and all four of us LOVE rides and the beach!
