Description: Located at the southern most tip of New Jersey,
historic Cape May claims the famed status as being America's first sea
resort town. Earning the title of "American Dream Town of NJ" in 2004, Cape
May is a true Victorian town. There are the "Grand Ladies" of the island
with all their vibrant color, gingerbread and lace trim, charming verandas,
intricate ornamentation and structured gardens. Many of the 600 buildings
listed under the National Register of Historic Places are now B & B's. You
will walk along the shore, by beautifully maintained beaches, where the
Atlantic Ocean meets the Delaware Bay, and note the famed Cape May
Lighthouse. Enjoy the pedestrian mall at Washington Square and dine at any
of the numerous casual and upscale restaurants. |
