Nice location, but overpriced and poorly managed. Cape May Beach has beautiful views, but the experience was disappointing overall. They charge for everything — entrance per person, beach chairs, umbrellas — and yet offer none of the basic amenities you’d expect. No toilets, no showers, nothing. For the price, you’d think they’d provide at least the essentials. Definitely not worth the cost.

I don't mind paying, since there are lifeguards.... But some people charging at the entrance are rude. Plus there is no bathroom or any facilities... Bring cash, if you use QR code there's an additional $2 charge.

Very clean beach. Soft sand. Very relaxing. My mom and dad are from Brasil and they love it. They can't wait to spend the day here. Family friendly. $10.00 for day pass per adult. There are $40.00 season passes and weekly passes. Definitely worth it. I do the day passes.

We always love cape may. Beautiful. Big. Many times look out and see dolphins. People are not on top of each other. Nice shops. Nothing bad to say.

Groomed beach with lifeguard requires $10 beach tag, includes restrooms with shower, promenade with view of Victorian hotels. Very warm water at this time includes some jellyfish and an array of crabs.

The oldest beach community in the US. Clean quite, family 👪 friendly. The views are amazing and the residents take care of their community. The beach is well maintained and the access to the beach in the summer one must purchase a beach tag. It's worth the price. Great waves amazing sunsets. It's a little pricey but worth the trip

It's the best beach I've ever traveled to with family. Clean white fluffy sand with seating and umbrellas if you need it. Everything's within reach from food , bathrooms and ice cream

We visited on 8/20/2025. Climbed with 5 boys aged 3-7 years old and they had a great time. The stairs inside are pretty wide and there are stopping points by the windows, as you go up/down, to rest or let others pass by. The views at the top are definitely worth it!

Must see attraction. Beautifully preserved site. Managed by super polite people. The climb is worth the scene from above. Also must visit the souvenir shop, the older gentleman is so adorable. The museum alongside is very interesting. Hike on path trails and time your visit with sunset to watch from the beach. It's breathtaking Plenty of parking available

The Cape May Lighthouse is such a stunning spot! Even without going up to the top, the surroundings alone are worth the visit. The area around the lighthouse is beautiful, peaceful, and full of charm — perfect for a relaxing walk and to take in the scenery. It’s a great place to enjoy nature, history, and the coastal views all at once. Definitely a highlight in Cape May!

The Cape May Lighthouse stands out as a remarkable historic site. Although we couldn’t climb it because of mobility issues, the area around the lighthouse impressed us. The grounds are well cared for and feature informative plaques, picnic spots, and nearby nature trails. At its base, you’ll find a museum and gift shop with exhibits about Cape May’s maritime past. Combining history, beautiful scenery, and educational experiences, the site has something to offer visitors of every age.

This is a great family activity with a cherry on top - great views from the top or this well maintained and still working Lighthouse. This place offered a great exercise climbing 199 steps up and then going down but the most impressive thing is the amazing views of all of Cape May, the ocean, and the Delaware Bay. Highly recommend this experience when in Cape May on a clear day!

This was just a stop for a day trip at Cape May. We were lucky it was not crowded at all. Perfect weather for October. Not too many stairs to climb. Max pulse 126

What a neat place. Don't like heights much, but going down the stairs wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. 199 steps. Each window alcove had pictures and explanations about the structure and what life was like. Nice view from the catwalk(?) that you are allowed to traverse. Wish the gift shop had lighthouse pens! There was access to the beach from the parking lot, a mini museum, and boardwalk trails around the ponds, with opportunities for birdwatching. Ran out of time to do all three trails. Worth visiting!

What a great experience at Willow Creek Winery - it’s a beautiful place with really good food and wine. I was pleasantly surprised. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating - tons of photo ops. But it was Heather who went above and beyond to make sure the wine flights we selected were suited to our tastes and our experience exceeded expectations. She was spot on, also. We all enjoyed our picks! She was so friendly, knowledgeable (answered all of our questions about grapes, barrels and more) and patient (explaining and re-explaining)! A total hidden gem in Cape May. Will be back for sure and thanks Heather!

This was my first time visiting a vineyard, and Willow Creek Winery & Farm truly impressed me. The drive in already felt special—passing through rows of beautiful vineyards before arriving at a full parking lot, showing how popular the place is. The winery offers two styles of service: one with table service and another where you order and then find your own seat. The atmosphere is absolutely lovely, and I highly recommend going around 4–5 p.m. when the sunlight is soft and perfect for photos. Normally, I’m not a drinker, but I had to taste their wines, and the menu I tried was so delicious. Overall, I really loved the experience here—it’s not just about the wine, but also the relaxing vibe and the beautiful setting.

Heather was the best server with the best suggestions. Our visit was extremely pleasant and we will be coming back to try the combo platter and have the highly-recommended, signature willow whip again (our favorite for the day). The Wilde cock white bottle was good for crispy white wine lovers, and the wild cock prestige white bottle was even better if you are a Chardonnay lover.

First of all, this winery has some very good dry wines (I was more prepared for NJ sweet stuff, but their Malbec was truly exceptional); they have wonderful premises with lots of picturesque vines to stroll through; food menu is solid, with some great highlights: bacon wrapped scallops were incredibly flavorful, pulled pork sandwich juicy, and burger a perfectly balance mouthful (sadly, fries was very good, too!). Highly recommend to anyone in the area

My group had a wonderful time at Willow Creek. We did the educational wine tasting and it was fantastic. Ryley was our wine educator and he was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and the ambiance was stunning. I would highly recommend Willow creek for a day out and wine tasting. Ask for Ryley! Terry

Our stay at Willow Creek Winery was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and so peaceful. The property itself is stunninglush vineyards, beautiful scenery, and such a relaxing vibe. The wine tastings were incredible, with a great variety to choose from, and each one was delicious. The staff was not only knowledgeable but also genuinely friendly, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. Our stay on the property was just as wonderful. The accommodations were clean, cozy, and thoughtfully put together, giving us that perfect mix of comfort and charm. Waking up to the view of the vineyards felt like a dream. Everything was so well taken care of, and we truly felt like we could just unwind and enjoy ourselves. Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway, a fun trip with friends, or just some time to relax and sip amazing wine, Willow Creek Winery is the perfect spot. We can’t wait to come back! 🍷🌿The Staff were so sweet and kind. Ps We LOVED THE SEASONAL WILLOW WHIP SOOOOO GOOD

A lovely winery!! Tons of seating both indoor and outdoor so you don’t need to worry about having a reservation. They also have a fun Alice in wonderland theme going on. Perfect scenery and location, especially being so close to beach plum farm. The food was really good- one of the best pulled pork sandwiches I’ve had! Only complaint is completely my opinion and I’m probably being picky but the prosecco was SO sweet (too sweet for a prosecco) and a bit hard to put down. The drink prices in general are steep for what you get, the wine is decent, but not amazing (I also tried the white wine my husband ordered). I would still definitely go back since it’s a beautiful property, staff were pleasant and attentive and the food was delish. 5 stars all around because I didn’t try enough of their wine selection to have a reasonable opinion.

I loved visiting the Naval Air Station Wildwood Aviation Museum. The huge WWII-era hangar is impressive on its own, and it’s filled with many fascinating airplanes and helicopters, piston and jet engines, with more to see outside too. The exhibits are interactive, you can sit in cockpits, explore vehicles, and even try simulators which makes it fun for all ages. Everything is well cared for and presented in a way that really brings aviation history to life. A must-see in Cape May for anyone interested in planes or history.

Absolutely amazing aviation museum. The place is big, clean, and has many different aircrafts. The staff is super friendly and the gift shop is well stocked. We liked it so much that we visited twice over the summer despite having an over 2 hour drive to get there. And we will be back whenever we are in the area.

First time visiting this aviation museum and I've been to many. Walking into the hanger brought back memories as I haven't been in one in twenty years when I was working on my A&P certificates. Good parking out, line into the gift shop to buy tickets was fast and everything went smoothly. My family and I were there as they were setting up for the airshow the next car and it was ok to go through the hanger/out given the movement of tables, etc. Nice array of aircraft throughout the years. Seeing the classics put a smile on my face even with the kids wanting to go home haha. The gift shop had a good selection of things to buy and the staff was friendly. (thank you for your patience with my son moving those big plastic toy bins around in front of the counter so he could stay occupied). Next time I'm down at the cape I will visit again.

This museum is fantastic! It boasts an impressive collection of aircraft that you can approach and get a sense of their size and the challenges faced by pilots. The museum comprehensively covers the entire history of Hanger 1 and the airport. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable, informative, and helpful. It’s an excellent place to visit!

Our son came home from university with several of his fellow Navy ROTC midshipmen for this past Columbus holiday weekend/fall break! The Naval Air Station Wildwood Aviation Museum and Flight Deck Diner were two must do activities! The NASW Aviation Museum is a phenomenal memorial and destination for everyone! Having been born and raised in Cape May County, my pride and love of our communities is strong! Celebrating the U. S. Navy’s 250th birthday on the exact day made the visit even more powerful! Bethany and Pat in the gift shop/ticket counter greeted us with a smile and warm welcome! Dr. Joe Salvatore and his wife Annie’s legacy and dedication to this very vital and historical landmark for Cape May County is truly felt through every exhibition in the authentic WWII hangar!

Such a great time with so much to do! Food vendors, live music, fire trucks, axe throwing, interactive fun for the kids! My 3 yo was asking to go back when he woke up in the morning. Can't wait to go back.

We went to see The Longest Yarn. An exhibit of knitted pieces representing scenes from D-Day. The craftsmanship of each scene was amazing. The rest of the museum was outstanding. Covering the time period from World War II through present day military life at Wildwood Station and Cape May. Well worth the drive.

We pulled into park and were slightly early so went into the gift shop(once we figured out where it was) That's where we learned that the trolly light tour doesn't pick you up at the Estate but rather downtown where parking is like finding a needle in a haystack. I assumed based on it stating the tour is only 30 minutes and assuming we departed out of here, we'd be fine on time, although it was probably a tight timeframe. We had a 5:30-6pm Estate tour and a 6:30-7pm Light Trolly Ride. The estate tour was somewhat disappointing but I guess it's maybe because it wasn't what we thought. Estate was nicely decorated with lights & there was a decent size parking lot. We were told to wait outside in front of the building 15 minutes before but weren't really told what to do so everyone kind of just clustered up. It was a HUGE group. Seemed like staff were unprepared for the number of people and ended up splitting the group into two. There wasn't really much direction given and it was more of a drawn out re enactment as opposed to giving factual information about the estate. We only got through the first 2 rooms in a half hour, the amount of time they say the tour is. We had a trolly booked for 6:30 so we didn't stay longer. We would have liked to hear some factual background on the house, the way they lived, etc. I hate being "nit-picky" but unfortunately this was slightly different compared to tours we normally do. *Also, we only made it through 1 room in 30 minutes so expect this to be an hour or 2 tour. It is impressive how restored the estate is though and it's beautiful.

Love it. Loved Ken our tour guide too. Beautiful piece of history preserved. I highly recommend a tour.

I absolutely lose my mind over historical gems such as the Physick Estate that have the entire house to peruse! The tour guide was fantastic & really went through every possible detail on the family & the history. Came with my friends on the first day of our CM vacation on a weekend. Pretty easy enough to purchase tickets ahead of time at the gift store. All in all a perfect way to spend a few hours learning about the local history! Highly recommend!!!!

It was interesting and informative. I bought a combination ticket which includes a trolley tour. I recommend the combination.

The Emlen Physick Estate offers a great trip back into Cape May's Victorian History. Take the tour: Guides are knowledgeable and the property is beautiful.

Very beautiful estate where we learned about Emlen Physick. We built a scarecrow, learned about magicians, and listened for ghosts

Excellent information and beautiful estate. We had a large tour group of about 10-11 people and there was not enough space in all the rooms for us to fit. The last ones in saw nothing until on the way out and then we were rushed to the next room. We came to see the room, the furniture the artwork. It's all lovely. We can forgo some of the story to drink in the details. Please let people really see the rooms, allow time for people wander a bit in them, and have smaller tour groups so there is enough room for everyone.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Charming spot with great wine and bites Cape May Winery and Vineyard is an adorable place with a welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. They offer a nice selection of wines — something for every palate — and the tapas were absolutely delicious. It was the perfect stop before boarding the ferry, and we left relaxed and happy. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!

A south NJ shore gem. Really well done. Didn’t eat this time. Had a flight of white wine on a hot day. They were all pretty good. A fun day trip with a date or with friends.

I love Cape May Winery! It's one of my favorite places to catch up with friends, enjoy the beautiful patio & gardens, and can't forget the delicious wines and tapas! The staff is always so friendly and the atmosphere is so lovely, the love and care behind this place is clear to see!

Loved the scheduled wine tasting. Very entertaining and thorough. The wine was excellent! I didn't stay and get food and a table, but the place was very nice, just a bit busy.

CAPE MAY: we were truly charmed by Cape May Winery and, although no surprise, visiting this spot reinforced that there are great small businesses and how we really have it all here in New Jersey! Leashed and friendly dogs are allowed at designated areas, so check with the host to be seated. Open daily throughout the year, come for the wine made from their own farmed grapes and stay to enjoy a tapas-inspired food menu, and a stroll amongst the Napa Valley-like grounds. We really got lost in the beauty of the place and the sense of whimsy and magic. We enjoyed a bottle of one of their white wines and you can also order by the glass or in a flight for a wine tasting. There is a nice selection of varietals to choose from.

We’ve dined at wonderful establishments and had amazing food throughout our vacation, however attending the Winery’s Summer Grill Night was unforgettable. We will make it a point to reserve our spot next time we are in Cape May💖✨💕💫

Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The wine was fine. I enjoyed the tasting and sitting outside enjoying with a glass of wine and the scenery.

such a cute little street mall and I love all the stores here. it’s the classical beach city street mall you’d expect from any place and it’s better than a boardwalk, you get the same amount of jersey heat but it’s definitely more enjoyable than dusty sand toes. the washington street mall provides more luxury than a boardwalk and is definitely the place if you want to pretend you’re living your dream preppy, coastal designer life. i spend hundreds here every time and I don’t regret it at all, there’s always another cute little souvenir (but i suggest you don’t get distracted by all the merchandise with the city name on it unless you’re not coming back, invest in some cute jewelry and a treat or some more quality clothes). still lots of handmade and local sponsorship and i love this place, i hope to see it flourish even more!

A fabulous place to shop at any time of year...but I particularly enjoy visiting in September! The crowds are a little smaller, and the weather is perfection! During my most recent visit I snapped up a gorgeous new hat, a fun fall cover up, and beautiful moldavite earrings! Definately worth a visit!

What a great way to spend several hours. There are a multitude of eclectic stores for everyone's taste. You can seek out your favorite Cape May t-shirt, find you child something to ccupy themselves on the beach, or bring your favorite four-legged friend a treat from Collar and Bone. Once you're finished your shore shopping, entertain yourself be indulging in one of the several eateries located on the mall. Round out your time here with the ever-present ice cream shoppes.

Washington Street Mall is such a charming spot in Cape May and absolutely a must-visit no matter what season you’re here! It’s the kind of place you can easily spend a couple of hours exploring because there’s truly a store for everything — from unique boutiques and gift shops to sweets, souvenirs, and more. Parking is paid and can be a little difficult to find, especially during busy weekends, but once you’re there, it’s worth it. The whole area is walkable, beautifully kept, and has such a welcoming small-town feel. There are also plenty of great eateries and cafés tucked around the mall, so you can shop, grab a bite to eat, and then keep strolling. It’s the perfect mix of relaxing and lively, with something for everyone. Every time we come to Cape May, we make it a point to stop here. It really feels like the heart of the town!

Beautiful street, loved the vibe, cape mat is best for short vacation. Loved the building structure here.

Excellent place for a casual stroll, great food, ice cream, coffee and other treat.

A wonderful time with wife open, dedicated walking only with very nice shops lining both sides. Were from Lewes/Rehoboth and the quality of stores just seemed of a higher standard. Very nice restaurants lining it as well. A beautiful day trip coming over on the fairy. We took our bikes for a 45 minute ride too the mall. Only 6 miles. A lovely time with mostly bike lanes from the fairy to the mall but not all. Id highly recommend the trip or visit.

The experience was great I got the chance to take my mother who will be 90 this year and my aunt who will be 80 this year. Just to see their faces with the alpacas was worth the trip. The husband and wife team are truly wonderful people and they take good care of their adorable alpacas. They were very welcoming and friendly.

What a great experience! Tish was a great guide…my fiancé and I learned so much about the alpacas and their different personalities. The personal tour was unique and fun. Make sure to visit their gift shop! I highly recommend this to anyone visiting the Cape May area. ☺️

We had a wonderful experience at Jersey Shore Alpacas. Jim was a wonderful guide – very knowledgeable and happy to answer all of our questions. We were each given a small bag of carrots to feed the alpacas, so they came right up to us. We loved learning about each of their backgrounds, personalities, and the creative origins of their names. Jim was also flexible with our booking and was happy to accommodate a last minute change, which I really appreciated. Definitely recommend a visit for families, especially if you’re looking for some non-beach activities to mix in to your trip down the shore!

We absolutely loved our visit to Jersey Shore Alpacas! It's obvious that the alpacas are extremely loved cared-for. We felt safe the entire time and were amazed by our guide's deep knowledge of alpacas. He knew how to position us to keep everyone (humans, alpacas) safe while also answering all of our questions. The alpaca gift shop is also very cute and had a lot of beautiful alpaca goods. In the end, I got some yarn to crochet with. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience.

I came for the tour here with my aunts and cousin and we really enjoyed it! The tour including the introductory discussion, time with the alpacas and time in the gift shop was about an hour. Tish gave us a very informative tour and helped us take fun pictures. The alpacas were so goofy and cute! I highly recommend booking this tour!

“I like the alpacas. They are very soft and cute. I will be back in the summer!” -my six year old. My family and I had a perfect visit with the Alpacas! From the information ahead of time, the introduction to the rules and expectations, the exciting and personal visits with each of the animals, to the information shared throughout, we had a very special day! I really couldn’t be more pleased with the way the owner easily adjusted to the needs of a family with 3 small children to make our visit the best it could be. Thank you!!

Jim was so informative about the Alpacas, introduced my Sissy and I to all of them, explained what to expect and educated us. You DO get to MINGEL with them, literally and instructed, educated how to approach and pet ♡Just minutes to get to from Wildwood, not heavy traffic road. Very clean, goodie bags(carrot sticks)for Alpachas provided by Jim. Excellent communication and clarity prior to visit as well. Respect is so important for everyone, Alpacas and experience. Another experience, hands on, in life. ENJOYED. Book a visit, enjoy. The TWINS. Thank you Jim.

Very nice living museum. Great staff to ask questions if you have any. Nice to wander around the historic houses, and places. Small farm out back with a horse & couple of cows. The only place that we didn't get to go in or see was the restaurant. It was closed.

This a lovely historic village where you can learn about 19th century history. There are separate buildings to visit: a blacksmith, a pottery studio, a schoolhouse, etc. Each one has a host who’ll tell you a slice of history. We especially loved the print shop and the bookbinder’s!

Great historic village. There were many historic interpreters showcasing all kinds of crafts including spinning yarn, weaving, wicker, printing, blacksmithing, tinsmithing, and bookbinding. Kyle at the print shop was very knowledgeable and communicative. The village is a reconstruction assembled from real historic buildings that have been transported to the site, so the historic education component is very general, but still locally focused. They have sheep, cows, pigs, chickens and a horse on site. The curator of the village informed us that he is a physic medium, so there is a lot of paranormal tourism incorporated into the village. They did not treat it as a gimmick or a performance. They all seemed to take it very seriously like they really believe in the ghost stories. But if you're not into that, it was pretty easy to avoid. There is a nice ice cream parlor and bakery inside the village, as well as a restaurant and brewery right outside so this area can really be a full day adventure.

Great historic interpreters. Kyle the interpreter at the print shop was great and really entertained our family! Glad we made a stop here.

Had a great time, the people working are very knowledgeable about the time period. Lots of interesting tools and a very tasty bakery.

I've rode past this place for years, never stopped. However, recently we decided to visit with family. What a pleasant surprise! I felt like I stepped back in time. Very educational, from the general store, inn, jail, school house, black Smith, etc. Each structure had someone dressed in the period and explained where Each structure came from and what the structure was used for. We even had corn on the cob, cooked on open flame and bread baked in the outside oven. There is also a welcome center and snack bar along with a bakery and ice cream store. There is a brewery which you can access in the parking area. If you rode past this place wondering what was there and never stopped, I would suggest you check it out. You'll be pleasantly surprised! There is a fee to get into the park, (not the brewery), and they do offer discounts for seniors and veterans for the park. There is also a ghost tour every Friday evening, however I believe these should be purchased in advance. You may want to call to confirm.

We visited about 2 weeks ago and were not impressed. Maybe because it was a weekday in the summer so there were no events going on. The blacksmith was closed so it was really just all bunch of old buildings. Looking at the website I expected there to be more to do. We found this listed on Bring Fido which highlights places that are dog friendly. While it is dog friendly in that you can bring your dog, you can only walk the outside grounds with them. They are not allowed in any of the buildings, not even if they are a small dog and you pick them up. For us, this meant one person could go into the building and look around and someone had to stay outside with the dog and then that person went in by themselves. We’ve been going to Cape May for 25 years and had never been here. We only went this time because we thought it was something we could do with our dog who is small, well behaved and loves to be included in things. We would never go back there again. They should not advertise themselves on Bring Fido because it’s not an accurate representation of what they offer. We paid $16 each to go through and were only there about an hour

Find #7 lookout tower. It has been refurbished and you can go in. #5 & #6 I still found awe inspiring. The Rehoboth Museum has a small card for measuring distance of planes. If riding a bike - it’s easier to ride on the hard pack of out going tide then on the sand, just FYI We went out by sand and back by path around Gordon’s Pond

I visited the World War II Lookout Tower in Cape May, NJ, and had a great experience! The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, adding interesting stories about the tower’s history and its role during the war. If you visit the Cape May Lighthouse, you can get a discount for admission here—definitely a nice bonus! The views from the top are beautiful, with scenic sights of the beach and surrounding area. The climb is easy, even for someone not used to towers. The tower was reopened in 2009 after being restored, and it’s now a well-preserved piece of WWII history. Highly recommend stopping by if you're exploring Cape May!

On a not so beach day we took the kids to see the Atlantis and the tower, was a nice afternoon spent. They give you deal if you purchase tickets to the lighthouse as well 👍

Nice historical site, plenty of information throughout about why it was built and those from the military that help fight the battle. The climb up was scary steel steps can see through them up and down. As you get higher they get narrower. Great view at the top, one is the Cape May lighthouse Price not that bad. Worth exploring!

What an interesting place to visit a lot of interesting things to see and people to talk to. If you have never been there, you should check it out

Really cool piece of American history. Cost is $8 for adults and $5 for children if you are interested in going to the top of the observation tower. Lots of informative signs, books, and pamphlets available. Parking along side of road. Nearby shops, beach, food, and other sights to see.

Mike and Peter are the best guides in all of South Jersey be sure to ask all about the tower as they will be glad to share their knowledge. Plenty of history in one area, between here, the lighthouse, and the Atlantus ship wreck right at the shore. You don’t really realize how much impact the area had in World War 2. Army, Navy, and Coast Guard all playing major roles. From South Jersey, to the coast of Delaware all the way up to Philadelphia the Germans were very much on home waters, even all the way down to South America. You can learn all that and more from your visit, so definitely check it out if you are in the area.

Last evening we saw Sexy Laundry and it was fantastic! The actors were amazing and the intimate venue created the perfect atmosphere for the performance. We will definitely see more performances at the Cape May Stage!

Saw Dutch Masters here on October 8, 2025. The show was amazing - powerful, unexpected, kept us riveted! The performances were excellent. In this small but comfortable theater, there is not a bad seat in the house. It was our first time at the Cape May Stage despite visiting CM every year, but we are definitely going to make this a part of our itinerary in the future!

Dutch Masters was amazing! The two actors were so talented! We knew nothing about the show and were blown away by it. It is thought provoking and concerned with current issues in today’s crazy world. The five of us are still discussing it and thinking about it two days after seeing it. If you can find a way, see this play. Cape May Stage is a treasure that never disappoints!

Saw "Dutch Masters" at Cape May Stage on 9/24/25. It is a play about an encounter of a Black and a White on the New York Subway and what ensues. The plot is well done, clever, and unpredictable. The acting was superb. Well worth a visit.

My wife and I saw “Sexy Laundry” at Cape May Stage on 7/30/25. The show was great and staff & facilities excellent! We see a production here every time ewe visit the Jersey Shore. Take one in - you won’t be disappointed!

Vanities on Sunday June 29. Very good performance. Made me smile, laugh, tear a little. Well presented. The Cape May Stage never disappoints. The theater is comfortable and all seats are great seats.

We always enjoy the thought-provoking productions at this theater. The acting is superb. Looking forward to attending the holiday show in December. Thank you Cape May Stage!

Very knowledgeable and accommodating. Free use of binoculars & viewing balcony. Plenty of birds across the street next to the waterway

My 8 year-old grandson loves this center! Inside there is a first floor gift shop, a second floor insect and small animal display and a third floor lookout. Outside there is a garden path complete with milkweed and monarch butterflies. The center runs different activities throughout the year. There is a kayak rental across the street from the bay for the seafarer. They also run a summer camp sponsored through the Audubon Society which is reasonably priced for children who love nature. My grandson looks forward to it every year!

We stopped by for the Monarch Butterfly Festival and had a wonderful time. There was live music, food trucks, a variety of vendors, and a Monarch tagging demonstration. I also had the chance to reconnect with an old friend and author, Miles Nelson, at one of the tables. It was a great family friendly way to spend a few hours by the Cape May Harbor.

We recently attended a monarch banding demo and learned so much. The staff were very knowledgeable and helpful to our needs. The gift shop was excellent for gift purchases and they have an observation deck on top of the building.

This was a stop on our rail bike ride, very beautiful place, glad to hear they are trying to bring back the monarch butterfly.

Great place to take the kids to on nonbeach day. A lot to learn and friendly and helpful staff. There is a little aquatic lab in the back with crabs, fish and horseshoe crabs and various other marine fossils.

This place was a little treasure, and their Laura is a diamond in the rough! We loved it there. Thanks y'all!!

Awesome trip for the family. Good for any age. Beautiful sunset, & plants of dolphins to see. The Captain guided our tour perfectly. Highly recommend. 🛳️🌄

Everything was great except for the fact that I saw almost no dolphins. All we saw for the first 1hr 50minutes were waves. At the last 10 minutes we were losing hope when we saw a few dolphins, which is why we turned back. Don’t go unless you have very good eyesight and are willing to keep your eyes wide open. And btw, we were 40 minutes late to arrive back.

I had reservations for a dinner cruise and they canceled it because they say they have no staff. How much staff do you have to have for a buffet. How many other people are disappointing. It's such a shame that no one wants to work. Yes I'm upset but talking to the staff there is nothing they can do to get more help, but pay more money. If I lived in that area I would love to work there. I hope one day if I want to do the dinner cruise again that it actually happens.

We saw lots of dolphins on the trip and even a few young calves! This was the only boat tour that I've ever taken that provided complimentary snacks! Great for all ages.

We did the dinner cruise the food was good and the staff was friendly. The sunset was beautiful and we saw dolphins.

Very good sit down dinner on the sunset dinner cruise ,plenty of good food, beef, chicken, pasta, nicely done, then you get a tour of bay and if your lucky like we were some awesome dolphins.The captain does great job of putting you close to see the dolphins, and explaining facts and history of area thanks for a great trip, we will definetly be back.

The whale watching cruise was amazing, the dinner was good. Overall, a great experience with Jared Hart.

Once, a town with huge dreams and ambitions stood here. A town that had aspirations of being a huge seaside resort town, that had a grand hotel, it's own early rendition of Lucy The Elephant called the Light Of Asia, and marvelous Spanish and Mediterranean inspired architecture on its many residences and businesses. That town, South Cape May Township, unfortunately, had a starcrossed and most unlucky existence, however. First, the transportation logistics of the era were most prohibitive. It was too far from town, and plans for rails constantly fizzled. The hotel burned down. The Light Of Asia was a bust as a tourist attraction. Worst of all, the grand Mediterranean architecture proved to be completely unsuitable for the cold rainy and windy weather of winter here. Buildings flopped, and whatever land booms they kept touting continuously went belly up. As a result, the population for much of the early 20th century never got into triple digits. The death blows for South Cape May Township came as the results of first, a pair of land booms that went bust, and then, a pair of huge Atlantic storms, one in 1936, and the final killer, The Great Atlantic Storm of 1944 that November, that almost completely submerged the town, leaving all six blocks from Beach Avenue to Sunset Boulevard and practically everything from 4th to 21st Avenues as well as most of an additional 10-12 blocks east-west and 6 blocks north-south in the adjoining Wetherby Tract under water and useless. Debris from the storm's damage spilled over into West Cape May and Cape May Point as well. It took a number of decades, and a lot of political fighting, before they finally were able to do something with this land. Instead of trying to build the land back up, the area was converted to a nature preserve. And what a preserve it is! Walking trails, informative signboards, and a chance to just observe and relax within nature, make South Cape May Meadows a wonderful experience. There are numerous observation areas to take a look at birds and waterfowls, and if you get too tired, there are some benches to rest upon. Many locals use the trails for daily exercise as well. If there is one drawback, it's that this preserve is just too big to cover everything that it has to offer in one day. You really HAVE to make like two or even three trips in, to experience all there is to see here.

Awesome trail and preserve! Great place for a nice walk. I visited on a trip through Cape May and can’t wait to come again

Beautiful and quiet with boardwalk walking trails and viewing platforms to enjoy the wildlife and scenery.

Highly recommend this awesome preserve. Well maintained trails. Excellent birding. Note that the preserve is for nature conservation. Therefore biking and dog walking are not permitted. I’ve birded 100s of times here and love walking the trails all year long. Bugs can be brutal during the summer months, but look at it as the food for the birds. I apply a bug repellent consisting of 100% organic essential oils that work fantastically. TNC has really developed a gem of a habitat that is rare along the Jersey shore having freshwater wetlands adjacent to the ocean. It’s a delight to visit this wonderful place.

A really well put together and beautiful spot. Walked a little under 2 miles and walked the beach too.

Since the last time I have been they really improved a lot. There is a very nice aluminum elevated "bridge" that allows you to go for a longer walk and see more wildlife

Beautiful place and amazing scenery, great place for bird watching.

Absolutely beautiful beach. Easy access, free parking and not crowded. And handicap accessible. Although there is only one HC spot. There should be a few more.

It’s giving poor

You Need to take Pittsburg Ave and make left on Beach avenue to get to Poverty Beach. Google Maps is wrong on their directions to the beach.

I should pretend that I hate it so you don't go. It's clean, quiet, with a lifeguard.

Love it!!!

Clean, easy access. Bathrooms closed. Walkway and trash cans.

Thank you to the Cape May fire department and its crew for responding to wires down on our porch rooftop with sparks and small flame. Neighbors called ot in and the firemen were excellent! They assessed the situation, asked us to leave the building and kept us informed. We were renting a condo while on vacation when on the last night this happened. When they told us it was unsafe to return inside, they took my husband upstairs to pack our belongings and pack our car. Several firemen helped us all during a pouring rainstorm Friday night. We greatly appreciated their professionalism and kindness to us.

Neat little museum that shows what the old time fire station looked like. Very nice to incorporate the history of the station in contrast to the modern fire trucks.

Very standoffish! I was interested in touring the station and was rudely told the station is NOT opened to the public. Interesting considering it is paid BY the public. Truly disappointed.

“A pleasant surprise” Strolling down Washington Street on the corner of Franklin St. you will normally find a pleasant surprise -- a cosmetically restored vintage American La France fire engine bedecked in bright red and genuine gold leaf. I say, normally, because of this writing the engine is in Hanvover PA undergoing a complete mechanical restoration to make it fully operational.

Paramedics from this station arrived promptly after calling 911 when my 8 month old daughter began to have distress breathing. They calmed me down- took her vitals- and gave her the green light. It was terrifying- they were awesome. Thank you!!

Very rude to fellow first responders. Unwilling to cooperate and acted like they were better than everyone else. At least the members we had contact with were rude. I hope they aren’t all like that.
