Atlantic-Highlands is an upscale, historic village located in the Bay Shore Region of Monmouth County, New Jersey. As of the 2000 census, the population was 4,705 residents. The town of Atlantic Highlands is nestled among the rolling hills located along the shoreline and offers visitors a sheltered marina and full or half-day fishing charters. Hiking and biking are other popular activities in Atlantic Highlands, along with an array of boutiques, first-class restaurants, a 5-plex cinema and live theater. Considered one of the "jewels of the Bayshore," Atlantic Highlands boasts more Victorian homes than any other town in New Jersey, outside of Cape May. The Atlantic Highlands Historical Society is located in the Strauss Mansion Museum, a late Victorian Queen Anne Style "summer cottage" that is open to the public for tours. Scenic Ocean Boulevard winds along the cliffs to Mt. Mitchill Overlook Park, which is the highest point on the East Coast and provides visitors with outstanding views of the New York skyline. The beautiful ocean beaches of Gateway National Recreation Area are just ten minutes away by car and New York City is a short ferry ride or bus trip from Atlantic Highlands.

Atlantic Highlands Weather & Climate

Northwestern New Jersey has mountains and highlands that play a significant role in the weather.

The Northern climate zone also has the shortest growing season - about 155 days. The classification for north-northwestern New Jersey is humid continental and has slightly cooler temperatures due to the elevation. Average temperatures in winter are usually just below freezing. Spring and autumn may feature wide temperature variations, with lower humidity than summer. Snowfall varies year to year, but is about 40-50 inches in the northwestern highlands.
