About Cape May
Things to do
Climb the 199 steps that lead to the top of the Cape May Lighthouse, which offers sweeping views of Cape May and the Atlantic coastline. There are interpretive exhibits detailing the lighthouse’s history dating back to 1859, as well displays showcasing the work of its former keepers.
Birdwatchers should visit the Cape May Bird Observatory, which is dedicated to the conservation of migratory species. Ospreys, plovers and sandpipers all migrate through Cape May during the spring and autumn months, and the observatory is one of the best places to witness them in action.

Want to see unique American “Stick-style” architecture? Visit the Victorian-era Emlen Physick Estate, which is now open to the public as a period museum. It exhibits many of the trademark features of acclaimed architect Frank Furness, including upside-down chimneys and stick-like brackets on its sweeping porch.
Getting around
