Donovan's Reef, or Donovan's as it is sometimes referred to, came into existence as we know it on August 10th, 1976, when the current partners purchased the former establishment and renamed it Donovan's Reef after the famous John Wayne comedy movie from the early 1960's about a former sailor who owns a bar situated on a South Pacific island after W.W.II called "Donovan's Reef." If you've never seen the movie, it's worth a few laughs.
Donovan's Reef was remodeled by the current owners, with extensive re-work on the outdoor deck, the side patio and bar - the "Tree House", the beach bar - otherwise known as the "Tiki Bar".
Donovan's Reef' is the only beach bar in Monmouth County and one of the very few on the entire NJ shore! Donovan's Reef is famous for showcasing top rated and upcoming bands outside on Suday afternoons. You can relax andd hear the music and even dance, while getting a great view of the Atlantic Ocean. You can eat, drink, swim, play volleyball, listen to bands, and in the day time, even bring the family and friends for a day on the beach !
