Hello you all 🌊🌊🌊

My first post here .going to share some interesting places to visit 👍🏻last weekend we spent whole day at Sandy Hook recreation area

Sandy Hook is a hidden gem of New Jersey and part of the Gateway National Recreation Area. We have visited Sandy Hook multiple times and always find something fun and new to see. It is super popular in the summer and warmer months, but I also recommend visiting in the off-season as it is not only cheaper, but also much less crowded, relaxing, and better for viewing wildlife

Sandy Hook is one of 3 units of the Gateway National Recreation Area and is made up of the Sandy Hook Peninsula and Historic Fort Hancock. There are over 7 miles of beaches to visit at Sandy Hook. Sandy Hook is popular all year round. In the summer, it is packed with beach-goers and families. In the cooler months, it is a spot for all different outdoor activities and is a quieter beach.

Historic Fort Hancock on Sandy Hook was a really important military base protecting NYC from invasion by sea. There are remainders of the military base and many batteries and gunnisons throughout Sandy Hook. The historic barracks and family homes still stand (and can even be rented to stay in!). The giant batteries on Sandy Hook were used to test military weapons in the late 1800’s to early 1900’s. This part of Sandy Hook is great for the history lover and outdoor enthusiast alike
Check out my last short for more beautiful views from this amazing place 💖
