The loudest boardwalk on the shore, piers, a 1910 carousel, funnel cake and a reality show that made the phrase Jersey Shore mean this half-mile. When Hurricane Sandy tore the end off Casino Pier in 2012 it dropped the Jet Star roller coaster into the surf, where it stood upright in the waves for months, filmed from every angle, the image of the whole storm.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
