About Bradley Beach:

In 1871 William B. Bradner and James A. Bradley purchased 54 acres of land north of Avon. They named this area “Ocean Park”. However, it was suggested that they change the name in order not to be confused with nearby Oceanport. Since William Bradner did not want to suggest his own name, the area was named Bradley Beach, after James A. Bradley. The town was incorporated in March of 1893, making it one of Monmouth County's youngest municipalities. By the 1920's, Bradley Beach was a very popular resort for tourists from New York and Philadelphia. The beachfront boasted several hundred changing rooms as well as two swimming pools and a number of stores. Bradley Beach has maintained its reputation as a great resort town. Today, there is a year-round population of 5,000 that increases to approximately 30,000 during the summer months. Visitors can enjoy clean, lifeguarded beaches, shopping and fine dining.
