The best one word description of Ocean City, New Jersey is, Wow! Many towns and cities have something unique to offer visitors, but some, like Ocean City, stand head and shoulders above the rest.

Founded in the late 1800’s, Ocean City has been a top-notch vacation destination for more than a century. So famous was the islands’ beauty that long before there was a town, or even a country, native Americans came from many miles away to summer in Ocean City. Approximately 7 miles long Ocean City is one long, pristine beach. For almost 3 miles of those beaches is the world famous Ocean City Boardwalk. At one of the several amusement parks located right upon the boardwalk, or ‘the boards’ as the locals say, is the 140 foot high ferris wheel which offers a fantastic view of the whole island. Cafes, restaurants, souvenir shops, and literally dozens of miniature golf courses, populate the boards. Everything from surf boards, to ice cream and cotton candy, to Christmas decorations and kites can shopped for on the boards in Ocean City. That’s not counting the world renowned salt water taffy.

As far as family oriented vacation spots go, there simply is no beating Ocean City, literally. In both 2005 and 2006 the Travel Channel voted Ocean City , New Jersey , the number one family vacation destination in the country. With nightly events all through the summer, there’s something for everyone. One night of the week is a street fare and face painting. Another night of the week the Ocean City Pops play at the music pier. On and on Ocean City is constantly abuzz with summer-time activities for kids of all ages. One reason for this unprescedented family friendly reputation is Ocean City’s lack of bars. While drinking alcohol in restaurants, at homes, and Bar-B-Q’s is not frowned upon, no alcohol is sold within the town’s limits. Keen on its family friendly reputation, the Ocean City community has gone to great lengths at making both locals and visitors feel welcome. It’s one of those rare towns where police officers in shorts and t-shirts are far more busy giving directions to out-of-towners and shooing pesky seagulls away than dealing with crime, which by anyone’s account is non-existent.

Being a seaside resort town on the eastern seaboard, Ocean City juxtaposes its rich historical heritage with its numerous water sports. Both museum afficandos and water sport fanatics are at home in Ocean City. Take a guided historical walk through many of the impeccable bed and breakfasts, or visit the Historical Museum, or nature preserves. Engage in some heart pounding para-sailing, or surfing, or relax on white sand beaches perfecting your tan. All of this just half an hour away from Atlantic City , just over and hour to Philadelphia , and under three hours from New York City. Many towns and cities have something unique to offer visitors, but some, like Ocean City , just stand head and shoulders above the rest.

While not first in many people’s minds’ as a vacation, or ‘to visit’ destination, New Jersey’s $32 billion tourism industry is one of the best in the nation. In part driven by it’s approximately 130 miles of pristine shoreline, renowned internationally as the Jersey Shore, New Jersey has a rich diversity of things to do and places to visit. From the sea-side gambling mecca of Atlantic City, to the Travel Channel’s pick of the best family vacation town in the nation three years running, Ocean City, New Jersey constantly surprises vacationers and business travelers alike as a place like no other.

New Jersey’s a geographically diverse state unlike any other. It’s one of the few states where some of the nation’s best beaches are just a couple hours drive away from award winning winter ski resorts. Sunset Beach in Cape May is one of only a handful in the country where sunrises can be seen in the morning on the eastern beach, and sunsets seen at night on the western beach. New Jersey’s home not only to the HBO hit show the Sopranos, but did you know it’s also the home of the nation’s first beach resort (Cape May), half of all the revolutionary war battles, the first college football game ever (Rutgers beat Princeton) and the statue of Liberty?

If you’re planning a vacation, business trip, or just a week-end getaway, consider New Jersey for its 13 casinos, wild wolf preserve, 130 miles of gorgeous beaches, both winter and summer skiing, nation-wide largest collection of Victorian Era B&Bs, historical landmarks ranging from the Statue of Liberty to the museums of George Washington and Thomas Edison, and world’s greatest collection of beach boardwalks, just for starters.

Sometimes referred to as America’s first beach town, Cape May is the oldest seaside resort in the United States. With its keen focus on beauty and history the entire town was designated an historical landmark in 1976. Founded in the 1700’s many of the buildings in Cape May are actually originals maintained in emaculate condition. With many being converted into pristine bed and breakfasts, of all shapes and sizes, Cape May is home to the largest collection of Victorian Era B&Bs in the country. Time and again voted in regional and national publications as the most romantic town in America, Cape May is a must-see.

With its numerous nature preserves, Cape May is world famous as one of the best bird watching spots in all of North America. With whale watching, dolphin watching, sport fishing and evening boat tours, Cape May is a seafarers paradise. For the land lubber who would rather dine on seafood than watch it, at Cape May’s main dock spectators can watch local fishermen clean and sell the day’s catch to the local restaurateur. The tuna, seabass, salmon, crabs, clams, oysters, and more, caught and harvested on Monday often become Tuesday’s specials at Cape May’s dinning options which range from sandwhich shops to 5 star restaurants.

Walk Cape May’s numerous cobblestone streets, or instead take an antique trolley or horse drawn carriage ride around town. Go on Cape May’s lighthouse tour, or visit during the holidays and take one of the several decorated B&B tours. Explore your nerves on a ghost and haunted house tour, or laugh out loud while dinning on surf and turf at one of Cape May’s dinner theaters. Wonder on your own and see an early 18th century mansion on your left only to turn a corner and find a nearly hidden meticulously maintained French garden like you’ve never seen. Come visit, and stay, in Cape May for a trip you’ll never forget.
