Explore Cape May

Make the Most of Your Stay!

Cape May is a place where history, nature, and seaside charm come together, and when you stay at 931 Beach Guest House, you’re perfectly positioned to enjoy it all. Just steps from our front porch are Cape May’s beautiful beaches, ideal for morning walks, relaxing afternoons, and golden-hour sunsets. As America’s oldest seaside resort, Cape May offers rich history at every turn, from its grand Victorian homes and charming walking tours to carriage rides, seasonal ghost tours, and landmark sites like the Emlen Physick Estate. A short stroll brings you to the Washington Street Mall, where you can browse boutique shops, enjoy coffee or ice cream, and soak in the lively seaside atmosphere.

The area is also home to acclaimed wineries, breweries, and tasting rooms, along with an exceptional dining scene featuring fresh seafood, farm-to-table restaurants, cozy bistros, and romantic oceanfront dining. Nature lovers will enjoy biking, birdwatching, dolphin and whale-watching cruises, scenic trails, the Cape May Lighthouse, and breathtaking sunsets at nearby Cape May Point. Throughout the year, Cape May hosts a variety of festivals, concerts, and seasonal events, including fall wine celebrations and a magical Victorian Christmas. After a day of exploring, return to the comfort of 931 Beach Guest House, a beautifully restored Victorian retreat by the sea, where you can unwind, relax, and truly feel at home.
