Recently been rebuilt because of Hurricane Sandy. Very pretty and you can fish from this pier as well as walk. There's a small exhibit inside and it's a great place for anyone of all ages. If you're planning a wedding, check them out because they had a beach wedding going on while we were there.

The new Jennette's is HUGE! It sits on concrete pillars and there is zero sway. (If you love the sway of the old style piers, this one is absolutely stable.)

Beautiful new pier, free to walk on (they take donations) and a bunch of interesting aquariums on the lower level. A great way to spend a couple of hours, even if you don't fish.

There was a request for a $2 donation to walk the 1000’ extension into the ocean. On this day there were a couple of buses filled with junior high school. Some of the kids tried their... More

What a beautiful pier with so much history attached. Educational information not only of the piers many lives but also about the ocean tides, currents, hurricanes. It goes out quite far to bring you closer to the ocean life.
