Welcome to The Cape May County Department of Tourism

Sea Isle City, NJ


A popular vacation resort along the Jersey Cape is Sea Isle City. Billing itself as "The Sea and Sand Family Vacation Land", Sea Isle City is a friendly resort that caters to families and welcomes them back year after year.

Sea Isle City is proud of its five miles of clean, white, sandy beaches that beckon its guests to frolic in its surf or laze along the shoreline. The Promenade runs along the beach and together they serve as the main hub of activity for the vacationer. Visitors are drawn to the promenade day and night for leisurely walks, concerts, special events, shopping, biking or just sitting and enjoying the cool ocean breezes.

Famous for its fleet of charter and fishing boats, Sea Isle is often referred to as "a fisherman's paradise". Fishing boats leave the docks daily on four, six and eight hour fishing trips. Special canyon trips for trophy fish are also available.

Accommodations of every kind can be found throughout this resort. First class motels, cottages, condominiums, and apartments offer lodgings to suit every taste and pocketbook. Restaurants specializing in seafood or steak are within a short drive in Sea Isle City.

Sara the Turtle, Sea Isle City's town mascot, symbolizes the resort's concern for the environment. Sea Isle City launched a massive campaign to save the endangered Diamondback Terrapin from extinction. "Turtle X-ing" signs have been placed in areas to warn drivers of the approaching nesting sites. This is just one of the many programs which typify this friendly, family resort.
