The Jersey Coast

We left Sandy Hook, NJ early Sunday morning for an 80 mile run down the New Jersey coast.  Not much to look at but sandy beaches.  A 10-15 mph south wind made it a little rough all day long.  Anchored in a protected bay next to Atlantic City.

Monday morning saw us again in the Atlantic cruising down the coastline.  After 5 1/2 hours we pulled into a marina in Cape May, NJ.  Took the free shuttle into town for dinner and sightseeing.  Cape May is the "Oldest Seashore Community" in the country (1761).  The entire town is an Historic Historic Landmark .  It has the highest concentration of Victorian homes in the country, many of which are B & B's.  None date prior to 1878 when a devastating fire destroyed virtually the entire city.
