Cape May...the beach, the boardwalk, the shopping in town and all those beautiful Victorian homes and B&B's.

Towns like Avon By The Sea, Ocean Grove, Bay Head immediately come to mind. And what about Spring Lake, Brielle and Manasquan? Those are some pretty awesome towns that could certainly be considered underrated.
