Mid-1980s Jersey Shore Seaside Heights Commercial with Bonus Footage

Growing up in New Jersey, we were lucky to have several awesome shore towns to visit during the summer. The place we went to was often based on where our parents had fond memories from their own childhood. My parents were both fans of Asbury Park. However, as Asbury Park's heyday started to fade, we started exploring other boardwalks, with Pt. Pleasant and Seaside Heights becoming our top picks.

Those summer days were super exciting, and watching this commercial brings back all the magical memories I had expected to find on the Seaside Heights boardwalk. From delicious pizza to thrilling rides and fun video games, everything I loved about summer was right there on that lively boardwalk.

I really hope you enjoy this commercial as much as I do, as it truly captures the essence of what the shore means to so many of us who grew up within driving distance of it. And hey, don't stop watching after the commercial ends! The person who posted this video also found some pre-edited footage shot for the commercial, and it's a real treat. You'll get to see beautiful shots of the beaches, the boardwalk, famous spots like Rainbow Rapids, Maruca's Pizza, Razzles nightclub, Pac Man, Casino Pier, Sun-N-Fun signs, stands, The Carousel, Dotty's, The Berkeley Sweet Shop, Sonny's & Rickey's, Midway Steaks, and so much more!

This is the Jersey Shore, before it became known as "The Jersey Shore" in pop culture. It's a nostalgic trip down memory lane for those of us who cherish these beloved places and the fond summer memories we made there. So kick back, enjoy the video, and get ready to experience the magic of the Jersey Shore!
