Situated on the Raritan Bay, directly across from Staten Island is the City of Perth Amboy. The “City on the Bay” has a historic waterfront including the Perth Amboy Ferry Slip, an art gallery, two museums, and the Harborside Marina. Included at the municipal marina are 137 slips, two fishing piers, restrooms with showers, and attendants on duty seven days a week. The waterfront is also the go-to place in the summer on Sunday afternoons and Thursday evenings when visitors can enjoy outdoor concerts. Seafood restaurants, an ice cream shop, and a bait and tackle shop round out the waterfront area.

The Perth Amboy Office of Recreation offers programs for kids and teens all year long. Kids programs include things like guitar lessons, baseball and softball, and arts and crafts classes. The Perth Amboy Teen Center provides services, resources, and activities to area teens. The center works closely with the State Theatre NJ and is a member of the Access Initiative Program at the Bergen PAC Theatre.
In addition to these programs, the Perth Amboy Redevelopment Team for Neighborhood Enterprise and Revitalization (PARTNER) offers community resources and assistance. They offer scholarships for higher education, organize community events like clean-ups, and support local artists with their artist registry and neighborhood beautification programs. The Gateway Neighborhood Collaborative initiative “aims to promote the development of a resident-led and community-supported redevelopment framework of the Gateway neighborhood with the strategy to incorporate a community-based, multi-agency approach to housing, economic development, crime prevention, and neighborhood restoration.” The volunteers involved in all these programs are truly dedicated to making Perth Amboy a great place to live for everyone.
