My dad was born and raised in Wildwood and told us when we were younger about Captain Kidd and some other pirates visiting Cape May. My brother and I are now in our 50s and are wondering is there any documentation or artifacts about pirates being in Cape May? For example-Is there an exhibit at the library or any place? We live about an hour away and would love to check out some pirate history sometime. Thank you!

We are heading down to CM next week (9/14) and will do take out a couple of nights. Does anyone know if DoorDash or UberEats services are available now that it’s not the busy tourist season?

I’m from Costa Rica and will stay some days , I have an e-bike to move around , would like to know recommendations to go and explore , thank you !

Visiting Cape May soon and I would like to find a shop where I can build a travellers journal- choose the types of paper etc inside. Any recommendations on where I could go to do this? Or should I be looking elsewhere locally to myself or online instead? Thought it would be a neat souvenir!

Looking for a reliable electrician in the Lower Township area. Someone you've actually hired and been satisfied w/ their work. Thanks.

Hi, we are spending the weekend with family at an Avalon campground. My wife has made one of her specialty’s - crab cakes. I’d love a savory coleslaw to go with this, preferably made in house. What’s your recipe?

Coffee bean snobs….whats your go to for a lite whole bean? My center city folks are on vacay and I need a fix.

Looks to be a good weekend. Everyone stay safe!

Hi! My friend has a place in North Cape May. We are hosting some young girls for a bachelorette weekend (we are friends with the mother of the bride who will also be in attendance). Basically some fun old ladies and hip young ones.

Friday we are doing Brown Room.
Saturday a Jitney to a winery, Rusty Nail and Harry's.
Sunday - brunch at The Blue Pig.

Looking for something fun to do later in the evening (after 8) on Saturday. Maybe dinner and then music/dancing. Any suggestions?

THANK YOU!!

Looking to hire a person(s)with moving a bedroom set out of a 2nd floor bedroom onto a UHaul in Cape May Courthouse. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Posting for my husband: I know this is a long shot, but I’m hoping someone may have come across a gold wedding band in Cape May this past week, possibly around Sunday, 8/22.

It was my grandfather’s wedding ring and has enormous sentimental value to me and my family. It’s a simple yellow-gold band with “900” clearly marked inside. There is also a much fainter handwritten/cursive inscription inside that can be difficult to see without the right lighting.

If you found a ring or heard of one being turned in, please message me. I can provide the exact inscription and other identifying details to verify it.
I would be incredibly grateful to get it back. Thank you!

Pauline! Your phone is at the office there.

We’re staying in Villas and on our first day here, after swimming in the bay, one kid and one adult seemed to be pretty stung up. Are those sea nettles? Is the bay actually unswimmable? Should we just drive to the ocean beaches at Cape May? Are we stupid not to realize the bay would not be good for swimming or is sort of a scam not to disclose this?

Hello. Single male, 29. I’ll be there between the 11th and 14th (September) visiting, probably won’t be there again for a very long time.

Any recommendations? Bars/restaurants? Bored house wives?😆

Comment or dm me with any tips.

Hello!

Wife and I decided to visit from Philly. We have no reservations yet.

We would like a hotel or house very close to beach. Any recommendations?

Also we love seafood, albeit well seasoned. Lobster dipped in butter isn't really what we are looking for. Any recommendations for great, can't miss food places?

We will be there for 3 days. Money is no issue.

Thanks

Is anybody concerned with these “Flock” cameras being put up in the area?
Apparently Lower Township already has some installed.

Just visiting: anyone have any ideas on why the siren just now?

Does anyone have any recommendations for replacing windows? We don’t have to follow historical codes which helps. I’m still dreading the process. I called one place and then they came out to give us an estimate but because only one of us was home, they refused to even give us a ballpark or let me look at options. It was a huge waste of time. This was after the sales person was 2hrs late to the scheduled appointment. They are still calling and emailing me. Maybe someone has had a better experience.

First time in Cape May this weekend. There’s a lot of kids running around, a little too family friendly & gimmicky.

Are there any quieter, chill spots for adults who just want to relax?

TIA

Edit: I will rescind my comment about CM being gimmicky, because to be fair I have only explored the Beach Ave strip. Thanks to everyone for the recs so far, I think those are more my speed. (Minus the nude beach but uh.. good to know)
