History of Diamond Beach​

• Diamond Beach is a small unincorporated community located on the barrier island in Upper Township, Cape May County, New Jersey. The area has a relatively short history compared to other coastal towns in the state. Diamond Beach was first developed in the early to mid-20th century as a vacation spot. The community was built on a tract of land purchased by a developer in the 1920s. The developer, who named the community Diamond Beach, intended to create a beachfront community that would attract visitors to the area.

• The development of Diamond Beach began in earnest in the 1950s, with the construction of a number of single-family homes and vacation cottages. The community grew slowly over the next several decades, with new homes and businesses being built as demand for beachfront properties increased.

• In recent years, Diamond Beach has become a popular destination for families and beach-goers. The community is known for its quiet, relaxed atmosphere and its beautiful beaches. The community is home to a number of restaurants, shops, and other small businesses, and it's a popular spot for fishing and boating.

• Today, Diamond Beach is a small but growing community known for its proximity to the beach, peaceful atmosphere and the natural beauty that surrounds it. The community is also known for its high-end properties, many of which are vacation homes for wealthy families and celebrities.
