Nice site at Cape May that adds to the charm of this beach area. It was kinda busy, and I didn't want to wait to go up, because I only had so much time. These are awesome places, so definitely plan on going to the top. There is also the remains of a WWII bunker on the nearby beach.

Great quiet beach to chill for the day ?️. Many paths to walk and bird watch. Off season is the best time to go and picnic on the beach. Not the soft sand that you'd find elsewhere on the Jersey shore. Nonetheless it's a nice beach. Free ample parking and public restrooms.

Pretty neat place to visit. I love going to light houses so this was on my list - but there’s also a cool world war 2 bunker right by it- so it’s neat seeing history too. It also has great views of the beach.
