Cape May Point State Park is a 244-acre day-use state park in Cape May Point that offers a range of outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking, boating, swimming, and beach-combing. Operated by the New Jersey Division of Parks and Forestry, the Cape May Point State Park is one of the best places in the country to see the annual Fall migration of birds to the south.


There are three areas in the park where birds can be watched – the beach for shorebirds, hawk watching platforms for birds of prey, and several hiking trails for songbirds. Visitors can also enjoy hiking in the park on three trails and see the remnants of a gun battery that were based at the Cape May Military Reservation during World War I and World War II.
