Looking to shake up your weekend routine? Monmouth County has an incredible lineup of coastal charm, craft brews, and local flavors just waiting to be explored. Whether you’re craving fresh ocean air, a cozy spot to sip wine, or unique local eats, there’s no shortage of ways to make your weekend special — and Vigor Dispensary is here to help you elevate the experience.

Take in the Boardwalk Vibes: Jenkinson’s & Asbury Park
Start your day with some classic Jersey Shore energy at Jenkinson’s Boardwalk in Point Pleasant Beach. From thrilling rides to arcade games, beachside eats, and the famous Thursday night fireworks, there’s something magical about a boardwalk stroll. Bonus: It’s a perfect spot to relax and unwind after a light cannabis edible or microdose—just remember to keep it low key and enjoy the moment.

Prefer a more eclectic scene? Asbury Park Boardwalk offers a cool mix of art, live music, and boutique shops. Check out Mutiny Beach for live tunes or hit up the Wonder Bar for local bands. Pair your evening with a mellow vape or a CBD-infused drink to stay present and soak in those sunset vibes.

Raise a Glass: Breweries & Vineyards Worth Visiting
Monmouth’s craft beverage scene is buzzing. Head over to Alternate Ending Beer Co. on Rt. 34 in Aberdeen, a unique brewery housed in an old movie theater. Their creative brews pair perfectly with a cannabis tincture or sativa flower if you’re looking for a little uplifting energy to keep the conversations flowing.

Or maybe you want to slow things down? Fox Hollow Vineyards in Holmdel is a serene spot where you can sip locally made wine and enjoy live music. A perfect occasion for a low-dose cannabis product that promotes relaxation without dulling your senses—think a mild indica or a balanced hybrid.

Explore Local Gems & Support Mom-and-Pop Shops
One of the best ways to truly experience Monmouth County is to wander into its little nooks and crannies. Discover family-owned restaurants serving up fresh, home-cooked meals and quaint shops brimming with character. These mom-and-pop spots often have the friendliest service and the most authentic flavors.

Pair your meal with a thoughtfully selected cannabis edible or topical to enhance taste and relaxation. And remember, this is about intentionally curating your night out — breaking the monotony by trying something new, something local, something meaningful.

Pro Tips for Enjoying Cannabis on Your Weekend Outing
Start Low and Go Slow: If you’re new to cannabis or trying a new product, start with a small dose—especially if you plan to be out and about. This helps you stay comfortable and in control.

Stay Hydrated: Whether you’re on the beach or at a brewery, keep water handy to stay refreshed.

Choose the Right Product: For social outings, uplifting sativas or balanced hybrids can enhance your energy and mood. For winding down, look for indica or calming CBD options.

Plan Your Transportation: If consuming cannabis products, arrange for safe transportation or enjoy the evening within walking distance of your home.
