The Seacourt Pavilion is a regional shopping center on Hooper Avenue in Toms River Township, New Jersey. It is right across the street from the Ocean County Mall. The mall has a gross leasable area of 253,000 ft²^[1].

The shopping center is a local hot spot for teens in the area, especially at the Cool Beans Cafe, which is famous for its live concerts and psychic readings, and the 10-Screen Loews Cineplex Entertainment theater. Skateboarders are also a common sight there, as there are many ramps and inclines, but the mall is tight on security, and skateboarding is prohibited.

The Seacourt Pavilion's architecture makes it look like a cross between a strip mall and a shopping mall. When approaching the center, it looks like another mall, but, on closer inspection, it's just a strip mall configured into the shape of an actual mall (all the stores are side-by-side outdoors in front of a sidewalk and parking lot, like a strip mall), and the shopping center is split-level, with the parking lot on the east side higher than on the west side, making the west approach look as if it is two stories. The east approach makes it look like it's one story. This would make it more of an open-air Center. The only two-story tenant is Marshalls, while the rest have a one-floor space. Other tenants may include Old Country Buffet (Which has its own covered dropoff area, much like the anchor of a real shopping mall), Pier 1 Imports, Loew's Cineplex, and a Sears Hometown Dealer. There is a larger, full-size Sears at the Ocean County Mall across the street.
