Boat rentals and jet skis are available at several marinas across the island or bring your own and launch it at the public dock. WHAT TO SEE Brigantine Beach is especially proud to be home base for the nationally renowned Marine Mammal Stranding Center. The Center has been instrumental in saving thousands of stranded dolphins, whales, seals and other marine life. You never know what guest will be swimming around when you visit. Located next door to the local museum makes for a great day of educational fun for the entire family. No nature lover would want to miss a walk through the North End beach right across the bay from the National Forsthye Bird Reserve.
