The best camping near Cape May Point State Park guide

Overview

About

Embark on an adventure at Cape May Point State Park, where the land meets the sea in a symphony of natural wonders. From birdwatching to beachcombing, this coastal haven offers a plethora of activities. Venture along scenic trails, marvel at the historic lighthouse, and immerse yourself in the vibrant wildlife habitat. While camping isn't an option, the park's diverse landscapes promise endless exploration and discovery.

When to go

The best time to visit Cape May Point State Park is during the spring and fall migrations, when the park becomes a birdwatcher's paradise. Summer offers warm beach days, while winter captivates with serene, frost-kissed landscapes. Avoid peak migration weekends if you prefer solitude, as these can draw large crowds of nature enthusiasts.

Know before you go

  • Check the park's operating hours, which are from 8am to 8pm, to plan your visit accordingly.
  • Accessibility is a priority; contact the park office for specific needs and accommodations.
  • Remember, pets are welcome on trails but must remain leashed and are not allowed on beaches from April 1st to September 15th.
  • Bring your own bags for trash as you'll need to carry out what you bring in.
  • Alcoholic beverages and smoking are prohibited throughout the park, ensuring a family-friendly environment.
