Driving Directions

Directions from Google Maps.
Directions on InfoAge.org.
Set your GPS for 40.19,-74.06.

From the North

Take the Garden State Parkway South to Exit 105 (Route 36 East). Stay to the far right and take the first right turn (stop light) onto Hope Road. Go about 0.5 mile and exit onto Rt. 18 South. Continue to Exit 7A, which becomes Brighton Avenue going North. Turn right at the bottom of the hill (stop sign) onto Marconi Road. After you pass the Camp Evans sign on the left, you'll see the main InfoAge campus and parking lot on your right.

From the South

Take the Garden State Parkway North to Exit 98. Stay to the right and continue to Route 138 East to Route 18 North. Take Exit 7 (Marconi Road). After you pass the Camp Evans sign on the left, you'll see the main InfoAge campus and parking lot on your right.

From the West

Take I-195 East until it becomes Route 138 East (after the Garden State Parkway). Continue to Route 18 North. Take Exit 7 (Marconi Road). After you pass the Camp Evans sign on the left, you'll see the main InfoAge campus and parking lot on your right.


Travel Advice

There are many lodging options within a 20-minute radius of the InfoAge museum. There are upscale options (Marriott, Sheraton), budget options (Holiday Inn, Red Roof, etc.), and countless no-name economy motels. There are a few bed-and-breakfasts and I think there's even an RV park nearby. We recommend that you pick someplace that's either a name brand or that has good online reviews, and avoid places that are right on the water (Belmar, Asbury, etc.).

The Belmar station on the NJ Transit train line is less than two miles away (40.18059,-74.027301). From there you can take a taxi to the museum, or you can take a nice walk along the water. You can take a train from NYC, with a couple of transfers and careful schedule-reading.

The nearest major airport is Newark Liberty (EWR). That's about 45 minutes away in *no* traffic, and it's easily double that in summer beach traffic.

We're less than one hour from Princeton and about an hour(ish) from Atlantic City.
