The Spectacular Seafood Restaurant In New Jersey Hiding In The Middle Of A Wildlife Refuge

New Jersey has some pretty amazing seafood spots, some are even right on the water. However, we only have a handful of restaurants that you can boat right up to and grab a meal. This iconic seafood restaurant in Leeds Point is one, and it shouldn’t be missed.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
