Fishing and whale-watching boat trips can be had from here too, along with watersports such as sailing and jetskiing. Or go west to Wildwood for walks or tram rides along the mile-long boardwalk and playtime on the smashing swathe of white sandy beach. Head east to Highbee Beach Wildlife Management Area to walk among the wild dunes or settle on the family-friendly Sunset beach (where dusk is, as you may have divined from the name, most excellent). Grab your bucket and spade and venture forth from the site for days at the peninsula’s fab beaches – there are plenty to pick from. (Mogelijk gemaakt door Google Translate ) The very virtuous could nip off for a workout at the gym, followed, perhaps, by an ice cream from the snack bar (in the interests of researching which of the 20+ flavours is the finest, of course). There's plenty to keep all happily occupied indoors too, including a recreation centre with arcade games, pool tables, a library and organised activities including crafts, games and nightly family-friendly movies in high season. The pools are a short amble from the snack bar for easy eats and drinks wander a little further around the resort and you’ll find more kid-friendly facilities in the form of four (yes, four) playgrounds, miniature golf (extra charge applies) and courts for games of tennis, basketball and volleyball. A fishing lake is around the grounds too for dreamy days waterside. The cunning folks at the resort have installed their own beach for sandy days and cooling off in this clean and filtered lake water, and you can also get watery in the outdoor pool while the tinies get busy in the paddling pool. Not quite the instant access you had in mind? Panic not. And you’d be correct: this spot in the centre of the Cape May peninsula is within a 15-minute drive of the east, west and southern coasts, giving you miles and miles of sandy beach to pick from for shoreside days.

Settle in for a stay at Seashore Campsites & RV Resort and you may guess that you’ll have easy access to the beach.
