24. New Jersey: Cape May
Cape May combines broad, flawlessly clean beaches with the historic charm of a 19th-century Victorian seaside town. Instead of towering condominiums, the shoreline is backed by pastel-colored bed and breakfasts, upscale dining, and classic promenades. It offers a refined, walkable seaside escape with rolling Atlantic waves, excellent offshore dolphin watching, and opportunities to hunt for “Cape May Diamonds”—clear quartz pebbles that wash ashore. It is a deeply nostalgic, family-friendly destination that represents the very best of the Jersey Shore.
