From the reviews

Great location for getting away. You’re in Jersey, but it doesn’t feel like Jersey. The staff and team are excellent. I would highly recommend the food here. It’s perfect for a day trip and taking a boat out for the day.

★★★★★ — Tyshawn, Jun 2023

So elegant and just beautiful. Everything here is perfect for any occasion. Service is impeccable, food is outstanding. Location is amazing.

I was only there once to deliver flowers for an event there. The staff that I interacted with was very friendly. However, some of the people that were there for other reasons were very snarky and made a comment. Just because you're not a member doesn't mean that you don't have a reason to be there.

★★★★★ — Ira, Mar 2018

Visited for a wedding and was very impressed. View was great, staff was attentive and food was outstanding. Really enjoyed the atmosphere but not sure how it operates on a daily basis.

Getting married at Bay Head Yacht Club

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
