Whether you are looking for sun-drenched beaches or outdoor activities in beautiful countryside, New Jersey has plenty to offer. Those who love the great outdoors should head for the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, which runs along the Delaware River for forty miles. Here you can go rock climbing, canoeing, kayaking or fishing, or simply admire the stunning waterfalls. There is a huge range of hiking trails to choose from as well as historic sites to visit. In winter, you can enjoy cross-country skiing near Blue Mountain Lakes, and birdwatchers might be lucky enough to catch sight of bald eagles. If you are looking for a change, visit one of New Jersey's eleven lighthouses that are open to public, such as the one in Cape May. For art and history enthusiasts, New Jersey State Museum in Trenton has historic artifacts and American fine art from the nineteenth century to the present day as well as a Planetarium.

I was looking for something different to do for my birthday. This was such a unique idea. It was very easy to make an online reservation for your time slot. When making the reservation, you pick what you want to create, however, you don’t pay until you are there so it’s no problem to switch it up. My husband and I each made drinking glasses and my daughter made a vase. The craftsmen there explained everything thoroughly. It was a lot of fun. Just as an FYI ... you either have to return in a week to pick up your creations or pay to have them shipped.

I’ve driven by this little fudge barn for years on my way to New a York, but never stopped. I was glad I did this time. This little candy shop in the middle of nowhere is amazing. Delicious dark chocolate in different molds and shapes. They also give free samples! Yum - best pit stop on the way to NYC!

I visited Shrivers with my husband and family. The whole experience was great. They have tons of different flavors of taffy (I like the peppermint) which you can mix and match as you please. I have had taffy from a bunch of different spots in the US and this definitely tasted fresh. You can even see the taffy being made in the back of the store which is fun to watch. The atmosphere is great and there are fun other types of candy as well - I brought back some fudge for my mom which she liked. Definitely a good stop if you are in the area and craving sugar.

The Music Man Singing Ice Cream Shoppe is a vaudeville style Nightly Broadway Cabaret. Performers maneuver around the entire shop, singing directly to individual guests, and incorporating them into the show. It’s a unique family entertainment experience that appeals to all ages. Join our growing family of guests who return time and time again to be part of the show. Looking for things to do in Lavallette, Seaside Heights, Point Pleasant or Ocean County, NJ you’re close so come catch a show at The Music Man. And, of course, the delicious ice cream makes a delightful evening even better.
What a great time we all had, we were a party of three adults and three 5 year olds. The ice cream was delicious with clever names. We went for their Halloween night and they were dressed up in costumes. Our favorite was the elf of the shelf, he was hysterical. The best was seeing the kids faces in awe when they saw their sundaes and heard the signing for the first time. We definitely want to go back for the Christmas show! We recommend this for every age group!
