Wanna get away?
If you live in or anywhere close to New Jersey, you have weekend travel options, and lots of them!
From attractions and curiosities within the Garden State to big city adventures (think Philly, NYC, Baltimore and DC) to the not-so-distant quaintness of the New England coastline, innumerable destinations are just a car ride away.
And that's what makes VacationIdea.com's list of the 23 Best Weekend Getaways from New Jersey so interesting: Among such universally-heralded options as New York City, Annapolis, Boston and Newport, there's the Wildwoods - at #1!
While it probably shouldn't surprise us to see the attributes of 5 Mile Island being extolled by well-regarded travel publications, it's always nice to see it included on (let alone topping) a list of such celebrated locales.
"The Wildwoods are one of New Jersey's liveliest beachfront resort areas, located along a barrier island on the state's Atlantic Ocean coastline," the site notes. "The vibrant resort district is home to a plethora of family-friendly attractions along its picturesque Wildwood Boardwdalk, which is lined with delicious restaurants, kitschy souvenir shops, and arcade attractions."
The entry goes on to reference Morey's Piers & Beachfront Water Parks, Splash Zone Water Park, the Sightseer Tram Cars and Doo Wop Experience Museum among the island's top attractions.
