Cape May is a world-renowned birding destination at the mid-point of the Atlantic Flyway. The City of Cape May, “The Nation’s Oldest Seashore Resort,” is located at the southern tip of the Cape May Peninsula in New Jersey. The city is designated the Cape May Historic District, a National Historic Landmark due to its concentration of Victorian buildings. In fact, it has the second-largest collection of Victorian houses, behind San Francisco. Cape May boasts highly rated beaches, fine dining, lodging and shopping, and birding, of course.
Participants will be within hearty walking distance of many Cape May attractions such as the Washington Mall, Congress Hall, grand Victorian homes, The Nature Conservancy’s South Cape May Meadows, Cape May Point State Park, and more, with the beach right across the street. They can participate in a dinner cruise, a field trip to Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge, several guided bird walks at Cape May hotspots, and/or enjoy visible migration from the Cape May Hawkwatch, just minutes away, or the Avalon Seawatch, about ½ hour up the Garden State Parkway.
