#5 Cape May, New Jersey

Cape May is one of the most charming seaside towns on the East Coast that offers visitors a quiet and idyllic summer vacation. Cape May is known for its Victorian architecture and "painted ladies" houses, as well as its pristine beaches and incredible restaurants.

Visitors can take a trolley tour of the town's historic architecture, bike along the beach, or simply soak up the sun on Cape May's sandy beaches. Climbing up the beautiful Cape May Lighthouse is a bucket-list item for anyone vacationing in the area.
