The beaches in North Cape May run along the Delaware Bay, known as the Bay Beach. The beaches are smaller, the sand is grittier, the waves are calmer, and the fun is endless. These beaches are known for kayaking, floating, fishing, sunset gazing, taking walks with your furry friends, and much more.
Take a quick trip to Lewes, Delaware on the Cape May-Lewes Ferry, a 17 mile ferry system that connects New Jersey to Delaware on the Delaware Bay or visit the Historic Cold Spring Village, a living history village dedicated to life in the first years of American independence.
