30 Days... The Best of the Jersey Cape
Think this is quiet time at the Jersey Cape? Think again. There's certainly a nip in the air and occasionally a little snow on the ground - but still plenty of things to do, so grab your mittens, bundle up and forget about hibernating this winter!
For starters, how about jumping in the ocean? In January? Join the Polar Bear Plunge at the Wildwoods Convention Center Jan. 11th. Proceeds benefit Special Olympics New Jersey. Think it might be a bit warmer in February for an ocean dip? Head to Sea Isle City for the annual Polar Plunge Weekend that's not just a refreshing splash but also a fun-filled weekend, Feb. 15 & 16, that includes the crowning of the Polar Bear Royal Family, plunge costume contest and post-plunge party, and a 5K run / 1.5 mile fun walk for autism.
Want to play inside? Really, we don't blame you. There's roller skating just about every weekend at Convention Hall in Cape May. Bring your own skates, or rent them. Check for dates, times and details.
By mid-February love is definitely in the air. Plan now for a romantic interlude at one of Cape May's quaint bed and breakfast inns or luxury hotels. Then, join other oenophiles aboard the MAC trolley on February 16th for the Cape May Wine Trail visit to Willow Creek Winery and Natali Vineyards.
What's just as romantic as wine? Chocolate! Enjoy a buffet of chocolate desserts at The Washington Inn on historic Washington St. Optional $15 wine pairings will also be offered. This is a limited event so book early.
And, if you really want to think summer, buy your beach tags now. Most resorts offer a discounted price through the spring!
Check back soon for more winter events and visit the Events page of this website for dates, locations and times of upcoming events. And remember, it's more fun to stay over, so check the list of Accommodations for the best places to stay this season. See you soon!
