About Sea Bright

As of the 2020 United States census, the borough's population was 1,449, an increase of 37 (+2.6%) from the 2010 census count of 1,412, which in turn had resulted to a decline of 406 (−22.3%) from the 1,818 counted in the 2000 census.

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 incorporated again on March 10, 1897. Additional portions of Ocean Township were annexed by the borough in March, 1909.

Some sources attribute the name to a suggestion made by Martha Bayard Stevens, The borough and other sources say that it was named for Sea Bright, England, though there is no evidence such a place exists. 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.

In 2026, Congressman Frank Pallone announced that beach replenishment will take place in Monmouth County, that may include parts of Sea Bright, Monmouth Beach, and Long Branch.
