Travel and Leisure Magazine has named two South Jersey beach towns as "America's Favorites!"

Atlantic City ranks as #11 on their list of 15.  Here's what they say about AC:

Things are looking up in Atlantic City, and T+L readers have taken notice. A decline in gaming revenues and subsequent closure of multiple casinos has pushed the beach town to encourage more family-friendly endeavors. Case in point: the famed Showboat Hotel has just reopened, sans casino. Today’s visitors are drawn to Atlantic City for its historic boardwalk—the country’s first, immortalized in the boardgame Monopoly. And remember: no stroll along the five-mile promenade would be complete without a stop for taffy and funnel cake.

And coming at #9 on the list is Cape May!  Here's what the author likes about the beach town:

Cape May is a postcard-ready seaside resort where horse-drawn carriages shepherd visitors around streets lined with Victorian houses, many of which are now romantic inns and B&Bs. A compact town center, chock full of antique stores, fudge shops, and local boutiques keep families coming back year after year. After a day in the sand, locals converge outside the Beach Shack Hotel for happy hour at the Rusty Nail, an outdoor tiki bar with a firepit. Order the bar’s signature Hammer cocktail, a potent combination of spiced rum, coconut rum, passion fruit puree, and fresh lemon and pineapple juices.
