Answer
Beach blocks along the Boardwalk and midtown oceanfront offer classic overhead views when shows run along the coast. Some visitors prefer slightly north or south of the densest Inlet crowd for easier chair space. Arrive early, bring shade, and respect lifeguard lines—you are sharing sand with regular beachgoers.
