cape may,

new jersey

Cape May sits at the very southern tip of New Jersey, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Delaware Bay. It's the oldest seaside resort in America, and unlike most beach towns, it has remained almost entirely frozen in Victorian time, its gaslit streets and gingerbread-trimmed cottages making it feel more like a storybook than a shore town. It's a place that has earned every superlative thrown at it: #1 Small Town Tourist Destination in the U.S., a top worldwide birding destination, a serious food and wine scene, and a beach that U.S. presidents have been coming to since the 1800s.
