The Barnegat Lighthouse
There is a walkway that runs over the jetty for a couple of hundred yards from the lighthouse itself. It offers a great view of the boats in the inlet and a place to try your luck at fishing. Watch the kids as the currents are quite swift in the inlet. The walkway is wheelchair accessible.
