The Jersey Shore has been named a top destination for September by Travel+Leisure Magazine. Known for its 90 miles of Atlantic Ocean beaches, the Jersey Shore offers warm weather and inviting ocean waves, making it an ideal spot for a late summer getaway. The magazine highlighted the Atlantic City boardwalk and Steel Pier as must-visit attractions.
Atlantic City’s boardwalk is famous for its vibrant nightlife, casinos, and entertainment options, including the historic Steel Pier, which offers rides and attractions for all ages. Visitors can enjoy helicopter rides, an observation wheel, and a variety of food options ranging from funnel cakes to seafood.
In addition to Atlantic City, the magazine praised Cape May for its Victorian architecture and unique lodging options, such as The Virginia Hotel and Congress Hall. The Wildwoods Thunder Over the Waves Airshow, featuring military jets and stunt pilots, is another highlight for visitors in early September.
Travel+Leisure also noted that the Jersey Shore is perfect for those looking to enjoy the beach without the summer crowds. The magazine's recognition places the Jersey Shore among other top global destinations for September travel.
