Dock & Dine in NJ

*last updated May 2019 – keep your submissions coming!  Don’t forget to call ahead and make sure dock space is still available.

Is there anything better than summertime in New Jersey?  One of our favorite summer pastimes is docking up the boat at a waterfront restaurant to grab a bite and a cold drink after a day on the water.  Our list* of restaurants will welcome you by either land or sea. Choose your destination and simply kick back, relax and take in the glorious surroundings of the Jersey waters!
