7 days in Cape May Itinerary

Cape May represents the other Jersey Shore--the one you don't see on TV--the one with a rich history and a refined, relaxed atmosphere.

Discover out-of-the-way places like Food Tours and Historic Cold Spring Village. You'll visit kid-friendly attractions like World War II Lookout Tower and Playland's Castaway Cove. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Cape May: Somers Point (Duke o Fluke & Great Egg Harbor Bay), Beach Haven (Thundering Surf Waterpark, Museum of NJ Maritime History, &more) and Downtown Ocean City (in Ocean City). And it doesn't end there: look for gifts at Kona Surf Co., take a tour of Spirit of Cape May, look for all kinds of wild species at South Cape May Meadows, and kick back and relax at Poverty Beach.
