Cape May, New Jersey: several shops; things to do

Several shops in Cape May, New Jersey

●Sunset Beach Gifts  

502 Sunset Blvd., Cape May Point, (609) 884-7079.  

The beach-front Sunset Beach Gifts shop has a vast selection of items--everything from a tiny 29-cent dried starfish to sparkling Cape May diamond earrings made from the frosted white-quartz pebbles found on the beach here.  The earrings start at $28, and I wear my dangle studs often.  This end-of-the-road concession conglomerate includes a restaurant and a miniature golf course.

The sunken concrete ship “Atlantus” is just off shore here from lovely Sunset Beach.  On summer evenings, a flag ceremony occurs just before sunset.

Prices are good and the selection is varied in this multi-dealer shop spread throughout a repurposed house.  A small garden is filled with all things outdoors.
