These towns are very nice (Bruce Springsteen lives in Rumson) but not at the beach.
They're "coastal." The actual beach towns can be pretty dismal in the winter.
The central Jersey actual beach towns, from Sea Bright down through Manasquan, are not dismal in the winter at all. Depending on budget, some great ones are Spring Lake, Avon by the Sea and Sea Girt ($$$), Bradley Beach and Belmar ($$), Asbury Park and Long Branch ($).
