Scenic Beaches

Cape May County’s coastline offers a diverse range of coastal environments, from the wide Atlantic shores of Five Mile Beach to the tranquil, bird-rich bayside stretches of Cooks and Kimbles Beach. Visitors can find quartz "Cape May Diamonds" at Sunset Beach, view the remains of the concrete ship SS Atlantus, or explore the protected dunes of the Cape May National Wildlife Refuge at Two Mile Beach. These locations provide varied opportunities for birdwatching and observing horseshoe crab spawning along the Delaware Bay.
