About the Area

Discover Avalon

20 vacation homes

Avalon sits at the northern end of Seven Mile Island, a slender barrier island that extends one mile further into the Atlantic than its neighbors — earning the town's long-held claim of being "Cooler by a Mile." This is the Jersey Shore at its most refined: no boardwalk, no carnival games, just pristine dune-backed beaches, architectural homes rising behind sea grass, and an unhurried rhythm that has drawn multi-generational families for decades.

Dune Drive is Avalon's main corridor, lined with upscale dining and the kind of polished neighborhood institutions that define a real shore town. The Diving Horse delivers seasonal, farm-to-surf BYOB dining in an intimate farmhouse setting, while Kohler's Bakery pulls crowds each morning for legendary cream-filled donuts and coconut macaroons. At sunset, the outdoor tables along Dune Drive fill with families fresh from the beach — tanned, unhurried, and settled into the rhythm of a proper shore week.

Beyond the beach, Avalon offers dedicated cycling paths running the full length of the island, free summer concerts at Veterans Plaza every Thursday evening, and the kind of quiet, residential atmosphere that makes it feel less like a vacation destination and more like a second home.
