The synagogue, called Chabad at the Shore, is being run by Chabad of Atlantic County, a roughly 14-year-old organization based in Margate, N.J., the town that neighbors Ventnor.
The Margate site — not too far from the brand-new Milton and Betty Katz Jewish Community Center of Atlantic County — includes a synagogue.
However, that Chabad shul is located on a block that's not often traversed by tourists or beachcombers, according to Rabbi Shmuel Rapoport, who oversees Chabad of Atlantic County.
