Activities/Attractions: Cape May County is a peninsula, located at the southernmost tip of New Jersey between the Atlantic Ocean and the Delaware Bay. From the thrill and excitement of the boardwalk to the gracious hospitality of Victorian Inns, there is something for everyone on a Jersey Cape vacation. The common thread of a Jersey Cape vacation is the 30 mile ribbon of clean, white sandy beaches which winds along the cool gentle surf of the Atlantic Ocean and connects the resorts of Ocean City, Sea Isle City, Avalon, Stone Harbor, the Wildwoods, and Cape May. Each of the resort communities of the Jersey Cape offers a wide variety of activities for seashore getaway.
Come frolic in our surf, relax on our beaches, stroll our Boardwalks, tour our Victorian Inns, relive our past, climb our lighthouses, browse our shops, fish our waters, enjoy an outdoor concert, be part of our night life, visit our botanical gardens, spend a day at our park & zoo, hunt for "Cape May Diamonds", sail our bays or experience our natural beauty at one of our campgrounds. No matter what is in your vacation plans, you're sure to find it on the Jersey Cape

is especially refreshing and peaceful

"If you want to get away on your own to regroup and re-energize, I recommend the Queen Victoria Bed and Breakfast in Cape May, NJ. The inn is immaculately clean, not a dust bunny to be found, anywhere. Upon entering one's room, you can actually smell how clean and fresh it is. This is because the innkeepers, Doug and Anne Marie, and their staff, are thorough, and hard-working. No detail has been overlooked in cleanliness and comfort. The innkeepers and staff at the Queen Victoria are energetic, genuinely friendly, unobtrusive, and hospitable. These qualities are contagious, as you will find when having breakfast or tea with people you never met before, and it is totally enjoyable and relaxing. The quiet elegance of the inn is unpretentious, and cozy. It is like returning to calm civility after a long tour in the chaotic world."
"The wonderful Innkeepers and spectacular rooms at The Queen Victoria exceeded our expectations. To celebrate my 40th birthday we stayed in the sensational Crown Jewel and it was worth every penny. From the whirlpool tub and gas stove in the bedroom upstairs (my favorite) to the built-in plasma TV above a tranquil fireplace downstairs (my husbands favorite), this room met our every comfort."
"We just got back from two nights at the Queen Victoria B&B in Cape May. It was our first experience with a B&B and we were a little hesitant about going. We loved every moment of it!"
"We will return again and again. There is no place like it."

"My wife and I recently had the extreme pleasure of staying at the Queen Victoria B & B. Everything about the inn exceeded expectations. This was our first time staying in Cape May and the inn owners, Anna Marie and Doug, made us feel like we were part of a family and not just guests. The room was immaculate, the staff were courteous and saw to any need."
