- Jersey Shore & Cape May
- There are plenty of towns to visit along the shore, plus miles of beach. Just north, across the bridge from Atlantic City, you might find your fortune-buried in the sand. It has been said that Blackbeard and Captain Kidd buried booty on the island, and it has yet to be found!
- Other treasures are to be found in Cape May, at the southern tip of New Jersey, in the form of beautifully restored Victorians, great dining and shopping, and fabulous sunsets. For more info about towns on the shore, visit: www.jerseyshore-online.com.
