Sea Bright is a borough situated on the Jersey Shore, within Monmouth County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 1,449,[8] an increase of 37 (+2.6%) from the 2010 census count of 1,412,[17][18] which in turn had reflected a decline of 406 (−22.3%) from the 1,818 counted in the 2000 census.[19]
Sea Bright was formed as a borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 21, 1889, from portions of Ocean Township, based on the results of a referendum held the previous day. The borough was reincorporated on March 10, 1897.[20] Additional portions of Ocean Township were annexed by the borough in March 1909.[21]
Some sources attribute the name to a suggestion made by Martha Bayard Stevens,[22][23] The borough and other sources say that the borough was named for Sea Bright, England, though there is no evidence such a place exists.[24][25][26] Earlier sources often spell it as one word, "Seabright", as seen in the United States Coast Guard's Station Seabright and the Seabright Lawn Tennis and Cricket Club.
