The Atlantic Highlands (that’s the region, the town itself is called Highlands) hugs Sandy Hook Bay, directly opposite New York City.

The Skinny

  • What: Sandy Hook, the Atlantic Highlands, and the Gateway National Recreation Area.
  • How to Get There: Pick up New Jersey SR 36 anywhere along the Jersey shore, and head north (if you’re south of Sandy Hook), or south (if you’re north of Sandy Hook).
