The Borough of Seaside Park, located on the Barnegat Barrier Island in Ocean County, New Jersey, was incorporated in 1898. Seaside Park is a small town of only 0.77 square miles with a year-round population of just over 2,200 residents. With almost two miles of shoreline on the Atlantic Ocean, the borough’s main industry is summer tourism. Seaside Park is bordered on the north by the Borough of Seaside Heights and its amusement arcades, rides and boardwalk. To the south is South Seaside Park, which is an unincorporated section of Berkeley Township, and Island Beach State Park.
Seaside Park is located across the Barnegat Bay from Toms River, the county seat of Ocean County. It is easily reached by Route 37 from the west (Garden State Parkway exit 82 or Route 70 to Route 37 east) or Route 35 from the north (Garden State Parkway exit 98, Route 34 east to Route 35 south).

Effective 12:00 a.m. on April 8th, 2020, all beaches within the Borough of Seaside Park will be closed, see attached order for further information.
Effective immediately, by order of the Seaside Park Office of Emergency Management the boardwalk will be closed to the public until further notice. The Beach entrances will remain accessible to the public while the boardwalk is closed. This closure is to further protect borough employees and the public during Governor Murphy’s executive order to limit non-essential travel. We appreciate everyone’s cooperation as we try to limit exposure during the Covid-19 pandemic so we can flatten the curve and get through this situation together as a community.
The Seaside Park Police Department has adjusted some response protocols during the outbreak of the novel coronavirus.
Officers will take police reports over the telephone instead of in person if the situation does not require a police response to the caller’s location.
When officers respond to an incident in person, for example, at your home, he or she will speak to you from outside to ensure a safe distance.
To limit exposure to patients on medical calls that raise suspicion for possible COVID-19, police officers will await EMS clinicians who will have appropriate personal protective equipment before responding to the scene. If the scene is determined to be safe, officers will remain outside the residence to limit exposure. Officers will continue to respond to all calls for unresponsive individuals and those in cardiac or respiratory distress.
Mayor John A. Peterson Jr. and the Seaside Park Borough Council would like to provide residents with links for information on the Coronavirus from county and state health officials.
