Picture yourself at the Jersey Cape, where sandy shores stretch for thirty miles, inviting you to bask in the sun and create unforgettable memories. Imagine strolling along the Boardwalk at night, surrounded by glittering lights, capturing that perfect Instagram-worthy moment.

For your stay, consider the charming seaside resorts of Cape May, The Wildwoods, Ocean City, Stone Harbor, Avalon and Sea Isle City. Whether you’re savoring seafood straight from the sea, exploring fun Boardwalk attractions, or discovering local boutiques, the Jersey Cape promises an unforgettable experience.



EXPLORE CHARMING SEASIDE RESORTS
The historic landmark City of Cape May awaits with its timeless elegance and Victorian charm. As you stroll along the streets lined with impeccably preserved Victorian homes and historic B&Bs, you’ll feel transported to an era of refined grace. Meander through the Washington Street Mall, visit the Cape May Lighthouse and dine on local cuisine in quaint eateries.

America’s Greatest Family Resort, Ocean City, has been a favorite destination for families ever since four Methodist ministers vowed in 1879 to create a wholesome seaside resort. Since then, generations have enjoyed Ocean City’s beaches, boardwalk and bay. And a full calendar of special events are reasons to visit Ocean City every month of the year.

Everything you could ever want in a family vacation experience is in the Wildwoods. At any moment, you can choose between relaxing on spacious beaches; exploring the 38-block boardwalk with three amusement piers and over 100 rides and attractions; beachfront waterparks; carnival games, arcades, dining, nightlife and more.

A visit to Avalon, Stone Harbor and Sea Isle City offers an experience that captures a timeless beach experience. Avalon is relaxed, while Stone Harbor’s 96th Street shopping mecca is a must for any itinerary, and Sea Isle City’s family friendly vibe makes the destination a favorite.

FIND ROOMS IN EVERY BUDGET
From bed and breakfast inns made for two or full-service oceanfront hotel suites, and whole house rentals just right for the entire family and Fido, Airbnb’s, boutique hotels, retro-style motels, elegant B&Bs, the array of accommodations in the Jersey Cape is diverse in size and style.

DINE ON FOOD STRAIGHT FROM THE SEA AND SOIL
The Jersey Cape is a culinary playground, highlighted by farm-to-fork and sea-to-fork menus. New Jersey, also known as the Garden State, is home to the freshest fruits and vegetables in season, which can be found daily at local farms and farm markets. Cape May/Wildwood is one of the largest ports on the East Coast, and many of the seafood choices are delivered to restaurants within hours of being caught.

ENJOY BOARDWALK FUN
Find your inner child on the iconic Boardwalks of Ocean City and the Wildwoods. There are several things that are synonymous with the Jersey Cape, but none of them screams “summer” louder than the area’s boardwalks.  These grand structures with thrilling rides, water parks, shops, restaurants, and arcades symbolize the joyous, carefree, exciting experiences that come with a visit as much as saltwater taffy, seagulls, and pizza.

RELAX AND REJUVINATE ON 30 MILES OF BEACHES
Beaches in Cape May County offer distinct personalities, and most beach goers have a preference, not just for a particular resort but even a specific beach. What's your preference?  There are beaches that cater to sunbathing, swimming, surfing, fishing, kayaking or even a game of volleyball. Nearly all the resorts have special accommodations for the handicapped or people with disabilities.

DISCOVER BEVERAGES, BIRDING AND BOUTIQUES
No matter where your itinerary takes you, adding a stop at a winery, brewery or a distillery during your stay will not disappoint. The appeal is part locally made libations hand crafted for you to enjoy in unique, comfortable tasting rooms, part scenic views, live music, and delicious culinary offerings, and finally mixed with relaxation and a whole lot of fun.

Go birding in a celebrated, world-class birding destination. Cape May is THE location for observing birds in North America, favored by celebrated naturalist, John Audubon. More than 400 different species have been seen on the peninsula during the fall migration, and the area is known for spectacular flights of peregrines, merlins, ospreys and sharp-shinned hawks.

Discover a world of charm and unique treasures as you embark on a boutique shopping adventure in the seashore resort downtowns. From vibrant Asbury Avenue in Ocean City to quaint 96th Street in Stone Harbor, stylish Dune Drive in Avalon, and historic Washington Street Mall in Cape May, each locale promises a distinctive shopping experience filled with character and warmth.
