New Jersey offers both highly urbanized cities and natural havens. Even though it’s known as an industrialized area, it’s also named the Garden State because of its abundance of natural resources. If you want to experience the best of both worlds, visit the well-known Atlantic City and its boardwalk, which features luxurious casinos, gorgeous beaches, fine dining opportunities, and much more. Take the whole family to Liberty Science Center, home to one of the largest planetariums in the USA. A seemingly endless stretch of white sand, Jersey Shore, the state’s coastal region, offers a plethora of amazing beaches. If you want to be closer to nature, observe various wildlife in Cape May, such as whales and dolphins. For an unforgettable trip in this wonderfully eclectic state, read on for the top vacation rentals in New Jersey, USA.
