"Americas First Resort"
Cape May at the southern most tip of New Jersey is steeped in History and is regarded as Americas first resort. Having the largest collection of victorian architecture visitors flock to the area year round to stay in quaint B&B's or walk up and down the gas lighted streets that are frequented by horse drawn carriages. Aside having a beautiful beach there is a long promenade for walking jogging or just sitting and watching the waves. The local restaurants can hold up against most in New York with local seafood as a staple. There is plenty of culture and recreation as there are 2 playhouses including one award winning equity theater. The natural beauty of this area combined with a cosmopoplitan mind set put in nuetral make Cape May one of the top 10 places to visit in the country.
