Pack up the Mini Van and
Head for Cape May County, New Jersey
It's time to plan a vacation and everyone in
the family has a different idea about what to
do. Mom and Dad want to go somewhere to relax,
enjoy a cultural experience, take in the
excitement and glamour of the casinos and,
possibly, even spend a day on the links. The
kids, well, they want to play golf, too- the
miniature kind- and they definitely want to
visit a theme park and a zoo. Plus, everyone in
the family thinks a vacation isn't really a
vacation without a trip to the beach.
If this sounds like your vacation wish list,
then pack up the mini van and head for Cape May
County and discover the treasures at New
Jersey’s southern-most county.
Situated between the Atlantic Ocean and
Delaware Bay, Cape May County, New Jersey —
referred to as the Jersey Cape—invites visitors
to enjoy the natural beauty, pristine beaches,
picturesque bays and waterways. The area is the
Garden State's southern peninsula which
naturally lends itself to watersports, fishing
and boating.
Boredom is not an option and relaxation is a
choice on a vacation here. An entire vacation
could be spent sunning and splashing on any of
the pristine beaches from Ocean City south to
Cape May Point. The beaches along the Jersey
Cape vary, from quiet, out-of-the-way strands to
vast and busy beaches crowded with families
enjoying the sand and surf.
Nowhere else will you find a place like a
South Jersey Boardwalk that excites the senses
quite the way they do here. Spinning, zipping,
reeling rides offer thrills and chills that
every kid and "kid at heart" has to experience
at least once. Beside the rides, there are
several outstanding water parks on the
Boardwalks in Ocean City and Wildwood that
always delight.
If you like to shop in more intimate
locations, stop by the quaint specialty stores
which line downtowns in the communities of Cape
May, Stone Harbor and Ocean City.
