Strathmere public beach in Cape May County, has been named New Jersey's "best beach" by Reader's Digest. The beach, which is nestled between Sea Isle City and Ocean City, is praised for its quiet, clean, and free beaches.
Strathmere is a hidden gem, offering 1.5 miles of serene coastline. The beach is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. starting from Memorial Day.
New Jersey's beaches are a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, especially during the summer. Last year, shore counties reported 48 million visitors, and businesses reported record levels of revenue from the July 4 holiday, according to the New Jersey Division of Travel and Tourism.
The Jersey Shore is a popular vacation and weekend getaway destination for New Jerseyans, New Yorkers, Pennsylvanians, and other northeast states, as well as visitors from as far north as the Canadian provinces of Québec and Ontario.
Reader's Digest's selection of Strathmere as the best beach in New Jersey is a testament to the state's beautiful coastline and the quality of its beaches. The publication's list of "best beaches" in America includes one beach from every state, highlighting the diverse range of sand, surf, and sun experiences available across the country.
