Part of CAPE MAY'S beached coastline.

THE JERSEY SHORE
From what I tin encounter New Jersey's Atlantic Coast is i continuous strip of sand. It stretches from SANDY HOOK inside sight of NYC to CAPE MAY precisely due north of Delaware (abt140m/225km),  interrupted many times past times streams or past times tidal exits from lagoons. In places this sand borders the mainland, at others it becomes a barrier beach on a slightly offshore barrier isle amongst lagoons betwixt them in addition to the mainland. In some areas these lagoons seemed to receive got filled inwards - inwards others partially filled to leave of absence coastal marshes in addition to similar. Where near-beach nation is enterprise or reclaimed in that location is quite a lot of short town - in that location has to live on several dozen beach towns along this strip, oft a continuous conurbation for many miles. Look for LONG BRANCH, ASHBURY PARK. SEASIDE HEIGHTS, SURF CITY in addition to others.
It's no mystery why the JERSEY SHORE is known every bit a fight of a summertime playground. To create it jurist a beach blogger would necessitate a vehicle in addition to multiple days to tour the shore - but at nowadays I'm inwards my 74th yr I'm OVER such detailed inspection in addition to reporting. There were many other places inwards the north-east I wanted to banking concern agree inwards my express fourth dimension - in addition to hence I confined myself to two locations only, ATLANTIC CITY in addition to CAPE MAY.



ATLANTIC CITY



ATLANTIC CITY takes upwardly the northern quarter of a quondam barrier isle which at nowadays is semi-landlocked past times marshes in addition to swamps. The metropolis is nigh 2/3rds downwardly the JERSEY COAST from the north.


I receive got no thought what this quondam barrier isle is called but every bit y'all tin encounter ATLANTIC CITY shares it amongst a few other urban areas. The whole isle is urbanised, including some reclaimed swampland/marshes.


AC occupies the northern 7x3km section. Interestingly the famous BOARDWALK extends the total coastal attain of this image....labels may live on clearer if y'all tin click-expand.
 I receive got a tongue-in-cheek TRIPADVISOR review of the boardwalk HERE.


....to give some idea, it extends due south past times that arrow. Shot from side past times side BALLY'S CASINO (where I spent a nighttime thank y'all to gambler-subsidised rooms - TRIPADVISOR study here) nigh two km from the northern end. Total length of boardwalk - 7miles/11km
Note several of the coastal towns farther due south in addition to to the due north receive got their ain boardwalks.


STEEL PIER from my BALLY'S room.


Like CONEY ISLAND, I constitute the BOARDWALK to a greater extent than pop than the beach. The common attractions of food/drink, entertainment parks in addition to a whole bunch of merch sellers - the latter had first-class deals on have on etc (I'm non certain if this was a permanent matter or only an halt of flavour sell-off).


Shuttles were running a fair length of the BOARDWALK betwixt casinos - force cart at correct was also a pop manner of transport. This bottom-budget traveller walked.


I checked nether the boardwalk - no members of THE DRIFTERS crooning away downwardly there.


THE BEACH - null to larn excited about. Pretty typical of north-east beaches - sand could live on to a greater extent than white or yellow, surf pretty rubbishy onshore (wind-wise) slop. Long in addition to pretty featureless but at to the lowest degree hither interrupted past times the occasional pier of groyne. And also WIDE plenty which the beaches of mid in addition to northern LONG ISLAND were not.
Marked lack of beachgoers indicative people come upwardly to ATLANTIC CITY to gamble, non swim or sun. Or perchance it was the flavour - EARLY FALL - although weather were sunny in addition to non cold.


At to the lowest degree the gulls were nonetheless enjoying the sand. That's the famous STEEL PIER inwards background.


Not all is lost - the LANDSHARK (shot from the STEEL PIER) attracted an okay crowd this fine early on Sat afternoon. 

So did BALLY'S BEACH CLUB a few hundred meters to the left - alive music helped.


Wouldn't live on an American Beach without the common listing of DON'TS. 
Land of the free?


I also spent a few nights at CITY HOUSE HOSTEL far halt of background street entirely a few hundred meters from the boardwalk. My TRIPADVISOR study is here.


CAPE MAY



CAPE MAY is the southern most tip of the JERSEY coast. Past hither DELAWARE BAY separates NJ from....um, tricky i here....DELAWARE!! Closest points are entirely 11mi/18km apart.
Straight draw of piece of occupation distance from Atlantic City is 39mi/63km -by route a few more.


The town in addition to side past times side wetlands accept upwardly the bottom of the peninsula - the beaches receive got a much to a greater extent than southerly orientation than most of the JERSEY SHORE.


I concentrated on the TOWN BEACH above, which had a reasonable reveal of people on this squeamish mid September day. NOTE that my see afterwards LABOR DAY meant these people didn't receive got to pay the beach entry "tag" (fee). I receive got to acknowledge in that location I receive got visited several hundred ameliorate beaches without entry fees. 


The town beaches were the nicest I visited inwards the north-east. Nice in addition to wide, sand fairly clean, in addition to plenty changes inwards direction amongst intervening groynes to give them some grapheme compared to endless direct expanses farther north. It helped greatly also that the to a greater extent than southerly orientation saw prevailing winds blow off the shore rather than onshore - resulting inwards agency less choppy slop.


However in that location was a fight of swell around in addition to the offshore air current helped polish the face, resulting inwards some squeamish petty waves. These dudes had the clues - all the other groynes had a to the lowest degree one-half a dozen surfers working them over.
BTW it is this department of coast where it is possible to encounter the Sun rising over the ocean inwards the morning time in addition to sink into the bay at nighttime - at to the lowest degree inwards early on fall. Not also certain nigh slow June when it reaches its northern-most azimuth.


CAPE MAY is i of the oldest seaside resorts inwards the north-east in addition to has many menses pieces similar those old buildings inwards background or the shade tents mid-ground left.


This is the beach instantly due west of the TOWN BEACHES - I'll telephone band it WILDERNESS BEACH because it is backed past times the CAPE MAY WILDERNESS OR WETLANDS. As y'all tin encounter it's pretty long - GOOGLE EARTH says 2.6km/1.6mi. Arrow background points to the famous CAPE MAY LIGHTHOUSE,
As y'all tin see, this beach attracted a reveal of people in addition to surfers unopen past times inwards the corner because of the proximity of town. I entirely walked a few hundred meters along the sand in addition to beach users dropped markedly.

BEACH SUM UP -even though the best I saw inwards the north-east I nonetheless would non charge per unit of measurement CAPE MAY's inwards my top 1000. They were ABOVE AVERAGE past times north-east standards (well at to the lowest degree the ones I saw) but VERY AVERAGE past times basis standards. Add the fact that inwards high flavour they receive got an ENTRY FEE in addition to I'm kickoff to cry upwardly them rattling very average.
But CAPE MAY township is a unlike suggestion - it is similar to my dwelling household town which is a fishing, surfing, vacation spot amongst some pretentions to history - in addition to hence to is CAPE MAY (although the history materials is to a greater extent than the existent deal) but it would demo the civic fathers inwards my town how things should live on done. There seems to a greater extent than emphasis on preserving the fantastic old buildings in addition to town central's WASHINGTON MALL would set my hometown's primary drag to shame.


Old household buffs volition larn every bit much out of CAPE MAY every bit beach nerds similar me.


3 blocks of WASHINTON ST receive got been converted into a MALL amongst lotsa cafes, bars, restaurants, antique shops, fine art galleries in addition to other trendy touristy offerings. Not a bad crowd for FALL - I reckon it powerfulness live on pretty congested high season.


In the interests of research, I had to pick out handle of a locally brewed at i of the street-side cafes in addition to scout the passing parade. Research constitute the beer a pace upwardly over ready names in addition to passers-by likewise compared to those on the ATLANTIC CITY BOARDWALK.


The northern halt of the mall had this terrific old church building where some local dude was making a large mistake.


Classy
