Rutgers GardenTucked away between the Turnpike and Route 1 is a little garden that not even all New Jersey locals always know about. Stretch your legs and stop off in Rutgers Garden, the university gardens for Rutger, if you find yourself in New Brunswick. Rutgers Garden has the second largest collection of holly in the United States. Enjoy wandering the gardens and experiencing the flowers, and don’t miss out on their farmers market! It is sourced directly by the fruits and vegetables grown in the gardens, all of which are fresh and delicious!

Situated on 20 acres in the South Mountain Reservation, it is part of the Essex County Park System, the oldest county park system in the United States. Founded in 1963, the zoo was originally a showcase for animals indigenous to the New York metropolitan area, but currently features species from every continent except Antarctica.
As of 2016, it houses approximately 1400 animals, including several hundred birds in a free-flight aviary. Located adjacent to the Richard J. Codey Arena, former practice home of the New Jersey Devils, the zoo is open year-round, weather permitting.

Yankee Doodle Tap Room
If you find yourself in Princeton, stop in at the historic Nassau Inn if only just for a drink at the Yankee Doodle Tap Room. This historic tavern first opened its doors in 1756, and has continued to honor its English pub style traditions. It’s a favorite for locals and visitors alike.
Try any of the 19 beers on tap; they offer excellent craft beer and food selections. Also, be sure to check out the large Norman Rockwell mural, which is 13 feet wide and is one of the highlights of the bar. Kick back in the solid oak booths and catch a music performance while you are there, if you can. It’s a perfect corner of the world for relaxation, good food and drink.

Asbury Park Casino and Carousel House
At the turn of the twentieth century, Asbury Park competed only with Atlantic City for the title of New Jersey’s premier resort town
The Carousel House, which was recently renovated with new glass, iron gates, and a new roof and cupola, now occasionally serves as a host to local theater groups and bands.
The Silverball Museum Arcade is home to 180+ functioning pinball and arcade machines that transport the beach-goer to a 1960s diner.
The Paranormal Museum is a small, storefront museum, in the tradition of "Roadside America" attractions. It houses a collection of historical and educational exhibits that explore the unexplained myths, legends and folklore that permeate our culture, dot our history books and continue to defy explanation in our world, despite all the advances of science and modern technology.

Belmar Beach
The picture below shows a somewhat calm scene, but the waves get big. I had been there at least once.
