What Somers Point is like

On the bay

The city wraps around Great Egg Harbor Bay and Patcong Creek, with marinas, bayfront condo communities and John F. Kennedy Park, a 6-acre park overlooking the bay at 50 Broadway. Every June the Assault on Patcong Creek crabbing tournament draws people from more than a dozen states.

Getting around

The Garden State Parkway runs through town (Exit 30 is signed for Somers Point and Ocean City), and the Route 52 causeway, rebuilt in 2012, links it to Ocean City. A walking and bike path on the Parkway's Great Egg Harbor Bridge connects to Beesleys Point in Upper Township, and a bike path of about 6 miles runs north toward Pleasantville. NJ Transit buses 507 and 509 run between Ocean City and Atlantic City.

Schools

Somers Point Public Schools run New York Avenue School (preschool), Dawes Avenue School (K to 3) and Jordan Road School (4 to 8). High school students attend Mainland Regional High School in Linwood, which also serves Linwood and Northfield. Check the district's site for boundaries and enrollment.

Healthcare and services

Shore Medical Center, the area's hospital and the city's largest employer, is in Somers Point, just over the causeway from Ocean City. Unlike Ocean City, Somers Point is not a dry town, so its bayfront restaurants are where many islanders go for dinner and a drink.

What's changing

New homes on the bayfront

The north end of the Bay Avenue business district has been busy. Salt House, a development of 24 new single-family homes at Bay and Maryland Avenues, and the Somers Point Paddle Club, a private swim club with a restaurant on the former Bubba Mac's site, were both under construction in late 2025, along with Salt Creek, an affordable housing project in two buildings nearby. Ask us for the current status and pricing before you visit; new-construction details change quickly.

History

The oldest settlement in Atlantic County

John Somers settled here in 1693 and ran the first ferry across the bay to Cape May County in 1695. His son Richard built Somers Mansion around 1720 to 1726, and it is still the oldest house in Atlantic County. Somers Point became a borough in 1886 and a city in 1902, and its Bay Front Historic District, 82 acres beside the bay, joined the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
