Things to do near Atlantic City, NJ?

Going to be hanging out near Atlantic City, NJ for a few days. Any suggestions for places to visit, things to do in the area? Is Cape May worth a visit?
  • Visit Smithville, Lucy the Elephant, fort Batsto, Ocean City boardwalk. Go crabbing.
  • Cape May is absolutely lovely and absolutely worth the visit. It is also the best time of the year to go there as crowds have subsided. It is the crown jewel of the Jersey Shore.

  • Do a Google search for `Atlantic City tourism' and read on.
  • Visit the Edwin B Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge, which is just north of AC. You can drive out into the marshlands on a driving route, and look at the wildlife.
