It’s hard to miss the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart as you explore downtown Newark. This French Gothic-styled cathedral features more than 200 stained glass windows and 14 giant bells imported from Italy. The fourth largest of its kind in North America, this cathedral is not only a beautiful architectural attraction but also a performance venue for several choirs and symphonies.
Head over to Pedals N Paddles in Seaside Heights to take advantage of Newark’s proximity to water. Whether you are new to boating or an expert, you’ll find some fun ways to take to the water at this aquatic sports rental store.

Munch on oversized sandwiches or the best burger in town while you sip on your choice of typical dive bar drinks.
