Picturesque and peaceful, Cape May is known for many things...it's "The Resort for All Seasons," and one of few places in the country where the entire city has been designated as a National Historic Landmark. Just recently, Forbes Traveler named Cape May as one of the "20 Prettiest Towns in America." That our beaches have also been named in a number of "Top 10" lists is not surprising either!
Cape May has much to offer, so there are lots of options to complete the experience. In addition to the beautiful Victorian homes and expansive beaches, Cape May has nearly 100 restaurants of all types. It's no wonder we are known as "The Restaurant Capitol of New Jersey."
Cape May events like the Cape May Music Festival, Cape May Jazz Festival, and year-round theater with Cape May Stage and the East Lynne Theater Company.
Victorian Lace Inn offers fishing excursions and boating, whale-watching, parasailing, golf and tennis and we're happy to make these arrangements for you.

One of the interesting facts that visitors may not know about Victorian Cape May, is that unlike beach towns to our north, Cape May was once part of the mainland before the canal was dug in 1942. That means our island is primarily of soil. You can walk off the Cape May beaches right into town and enjoy the lush gardens and walk in the shade of 300 year-old sycamores tree-lined streets.
Cape May, New Jersey is also the premier birding destination in New Jersey and North America...a rest stop for hundreds of species of migratory birds. Because Cape May is at the confluence of the Delaware Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, the birds find protected wetlands and shelter, food and water.
