We have been going to Cape May for 23 years and have gone to Sunset Beach for the same length of time. The sunsets over the water are spectacular! Unless it's really bad weather or very cloudy, you're more than likely going to see your best sunset ever. The sunsets are frequently glowing red and the colors that illuminate into the rest of the sky are the most amazing pastels. No matter how many times I see the sunset from here, I'm amazed at it's beauty.The Flag Ceremony (held Memorial day through September) is lovely and very moving as every flag flown is a casket flag. Before each evening's ceremony, they give a brief history of the life of the person whose flag was flown that day. It's hard to watch the sunset at the same time as you're participating in the flag ceremony but the flag is usually down well before the sun has completely set. Traffic leaving Sunset Beach can be heavy right after Sunset.There is shopping and a miniature golf course there as well as the Cape May Grill which offers food all day. The prices here are usually much lower than the prices in Cape May. They have great prices on clothing. They have plenty of souvenirs and Cape May related books as well as jewelry. What's left of the Concrete Ship is viewable from Sunset Beach. People search for Cape May diamonds on the beach.Parking during sunset can be very difficult and, if you don't get there early enough, you'll end up parking along the street and walking down to the beach. Parking is free.The beach is rocky instead of sandy. It is free. No swimming is allowed but dogs are!!
差不多傍晚的时候过去最刚好,你可以享受美景直到真正日落,骑脚踏车过去最好戴太阳眼镜,因为太阳在你正前方相当刺眼,但是到达看到一大片海洋跟天空,真的是海阔天空,太棒了!会再去造访^^
This is a nice beach( but don't plan on swimming). I'm sure it's more spectacular at Sunset. We searched the beach for stones called Cape May Diamonds which are almost translucent and stopped in at the gift shop that is close to the waterfront. We also took some photos of the bow of the SS Atlantus which was one of the experimental concrete ships built during WWI. It is a nice location for some interesting photos - even if you happen to visit in the middle of the day....
海滩很有名气,音乐会船很有趣,不过音乐会船不会撑太久了。礼品船上有些不错的东西,营业一年多了,旺季这里的降旗仪式还是很值得一看的。
一定要开车来这个热闹的开普梅海滩欣赏风景!礼品店有很多礼品,可以用来庆祝开普梅之旅。
As the name suggests, the Sunset Beach offers spectacular views of the sunset.Pros:1. Close proximity to Cape May beach and lighthouse.2. Make sure to reach well ahead of sunset time to grab good spot to view the fun.3. Highly recommend cycling down to avoid waiting for long parking queue.Cons:1. Parking is only available along Sunset Blvd, so can get tight to park and exit.
Sunset Beach is a "must" every time I'm in the Wildwood/Cape May area. The sunsets are amazing and prior to my first visit, it had never occurred to me that it was possible to see an ocean sunset on the East Coast! The daily flag-lowering ceremony is very special and brings a tear to my eye every time. See http://sunsetbeachnj.com/Flag-Ceremony for more info on the ceremonies. My 10-year-old enjoys the mini-golf course there and I enjoy the gift shops, which carry a wide variety of merchandise at very good prices. There's so much packed into this little tip of land, that it's really worth going the extra mile or two outside of the usual Cape May shopping area to check it out. Added bonus: Free Parking!! (which is virtually non-existent in the rest of the Cape May tourist areas.)
这里很容易去,而且免费。任何时候来开普梅时这里都是最佳地点。白天也可以游泳和晒日光浴。
This is the most beautiful sunset outside of Hawaii. Arrive a couple hours before sunset or you will face the sunset rush. Head north up the beach a little way, not too far or you will hit Higbees Beach which is clothing optional. Bring a blanket and enjoy the view and hunt for the Cape May Diamonds. They are everywhere you dig or look in all sizes and shades. There's a little grill and ice cream store and 2 gift shops. We went several times the week we were there to see the sunset. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day they have a flag ceremony every evening at sunset.
This has been a favorite spot for our family through the years. We are very patriotic and during the season, veterans have a flag lowering ceremony around 8:00 pm. The flags usually have flown over a base somewhere in the world so there is a meaning behind the ceremony. There is a snack place with great burgers and an Awesome gift shop. On the way you can also stop at the World War II bunker where they watched for Germans in the Delaware Bay. You can even park at Sunset Beach(free) and walk to the tower.
