| JUST MINUTES FROM EVERYTHING in Cape May County, visitors to Avalon can steal away from the hustle and bustle to enjoy a weekend, a week or more in this chic seashore hideaway where the reality of being off the beaten path is part of the town's charm. Reviewers of The Washingtonian Magazine named Avalon’s beach “the best beach in New Jersey” noting the gentle surf, natural dunes and attentive lifeguards. High dunes and wide beaches have helped shelter Avalon from coastal storms and the town has continued a dune preservation program with the help of local school children. Recreational choices are plentiful on the beachfront, bayfront and almost everywhere in Avalon. Tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, parks and miniature golf courses throughout the resort provide sporty alternatives to the surf and sun. For the kids, recreational camps including basketball, tennis, lacrosse, soccer and field hockey are hosted by the municipality. Bay, ocean and canyon fishing charters leave daily from the local marina, which also offers visitors municipal ramps and slips. For water enthusiasts, there’s water skiing, sailing, wind surfing, power boating, clamming, crabbing and kayaking. Dolphin nature cruises combine ecological education with fun for all ages. Summer events include family fun with magic acts, silly sing-a-longs and dance troupe reviews plus antique craft shows, charity runs, big band performances, talent shows, art shows, a sand sculpture contest and more to fill summer days with family fun. Shopping and dining in Avalon are also a cut above in choices and taste. Art galleries and top name clothing boutiques are found throughout the town intermingled with abundant choices for fine dining or a casual meal. Whether it's enjoying recreational pursuits on land and sea, swimming in the ocean, strolling the beach or simply sitting on the sand, Avalon is a chic choice to vacationing at the Jersey Shore.
