Things to do in New Jersey, United States: The Best Other Outdoor Activities
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.

This was the best part of our vacation. The crew did an amazing job setting the stage and my son Josh loved it. From the tattoo to meeting real pirates he is still taking about it. He loved defeating pirate Pete and finding real treasure!! Our son is four and had the time of his life.

9/11 Memorial & scenic overlook of Sandy Hook, Raritan Bay & 4 counties of NYC
Reviewed By Unresolved_Issue - Edison, United States
Stopped here expecting to spend just a few minutes enjoying the view of Sandy Hook. And ended up spending more time. Very peaceful park with flowers and a few park benches. There are also signs describing the area, pointing out landmarks in the distance. On a clear day you can see NYC in the distance. What really moved me is the 9//1 monument with the names of those from Monmouth Cnty who lost their lives on 9/11. This alone is worth the visit.

Nice established facility. There are flush toilets in the main office. No consistent food availability and not much else around so bring your own.
