Council members who voted against the proposal said their concerns were with the process, not the ferry service itself. They argued that Seastreak did not go through the borough&#8217;s usual zoning and land-use review process and that the council was not given enough advance notice about the plan. While some of those who voted no said they support the idea of ferry service, they felt the proposal should have followed the standard approval process before moving forward.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>Read More:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/rent-bikes-towels-beach-jersey-shore-nj\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jersey Shore Vacation Essentials: Where to Rent Bikes, Baby Gear, Beach Needs, Etc.<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Following the council meeting and decision, Seastreak confirmed the cancellation of the planned ferry service between Point Pleasant and Manhattan in a <a href=\"https:\/\/seastreak.com\/service-alerts\/\">press release<\/a> on Thursday, June 18th, 2026.

According to the company, Point Pleasant Beach officials initially expressed support for the concept and voted to explore a temporary licensing framework that would allow a pilot program to move forward. Based on those discussions, Seastreak moved ahead with planning for the 2026 summer service, investing in marketing, ticket sales, and operational preparations. Seastreak secured docking rights at Captain Bill&#8217;s Landing at 49 Inlet Drive, near the Jenkinson\u2019s Inlet Parking Lot and<a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/jerseyshore\/best-seafood-restaurants-jersey-shore-new-jersey\/\"> popular local spots<\/a> such as Sinner\u2019s Steakhouse and Red\u2019s Lobster Pot.<\/p>\n<p>The proposed pilot program would have come at no cost to the borough, with Seastreak covering all expenses related to the service. The route was expected to provide direct transportation between Manhattan and Point Pleasant Beach in about 75 minutes, offering a significantly faster alternative to the roughly 2.5-hour trip via NJ Transit from Penn Station.<\/p>\n<h3>Local Concerns<\/h3>\n<p>In addition to concerns about zoning and land-use approvals, residents and council members questioned how the proposed ferry service would operate during Point Pleasant Beach&#8217;s busiest summer weekends. Discussions focused on parking, traffic congestion, restroom access, and how hundreds of passengers arriving from New York City would be accommodated once they reached the borough. While supporters cited Seastreak&#8217;s existing Highlands service as a successful example, opponents argued the two situations were not comparable. Unlike the proposed Point Pleasant Beach operation, the Highlands location includes a dedicated ferry terminal, parking facilities, and supporting infrastructure that underwent review through the local land-use process. Because the Point Pleasant Beach proposal did not include a terminal building, some residents said additional planning and public review were needed to address traffic flow, passenger accommodations, and other operational details before moving forward.<\/p>\n<h3>Future Plans<\/h3>\n<p>Looking ahead, the company said it is unclear whether it will pursue ferry service in Point Pleasant Beach again in 2027. According to Seastreak, its focus remains on deploying vessels in locations where projects have a clear and practical path forward and that they are open to working with other nearby communities interested in establishing ferry service. Seastreak officials said customers who already purchased tickets for the planned Point Pleasant Beach service will receive full and immediate refunds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>See More:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobokengirl.com\/beaches-hoboken-jersey-city-new-york-public-transit-trains-bus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">16 Beaches Accessible by Public Transit from Hoboken + Jersey City<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Follow @thejerseyshoregirl_ on<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thejerseyshoregirl_\/?hl=en\"><span class=\"s1\">&nbsp;Instagram<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;for the latest Jersey Shore updates,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twilight-lion-90332.myflodesk.com\/jrf4qhj7qk\"><span class=\"s1\">sign up for our weekly newsletter here<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;that shares everything you missed each week, and check out our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/calendar\/jersey-shore-events-this-week\/\"><span class=\"s1\">events calendar<\/span><\/a>, which has over 40+ events weekly to peruse.<\/p>\n<div class=\"categories\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/travel\/ \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Travel<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>travelPlans for a summer ferry service connecting Point Pleasant Beach and New York City have officially been shelved after the Point Pleasant&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":386,"featured_media":237182,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[9479,7997,9660,9646,9640,9593,567],"tags":[9673,9702,9678,9707,9755,9756],"class_list":["post-237181","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-events-news","category-lifestyle","category-news","category-point-pleasant","category-jersey-shore-towns","category-local-girl-rss-feed","category-travel","tag-jersey-shore","tag-lifestyle","tag-new-jersey","tag-news","tag-tlg","tag-travel"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.6 (Yoast SEO v27.6) -
