What's the best time to visit New Jersey?

I’ve lived in New York City my entire life, but I’ve never seen more than a couple of nearby cities in New Jersey. I heard the state has some amazing attractions, so I’m starting to plan my trip. When’s the best time to visit New Jersey?

Northern
New Jersey
is a far cry from the rest of the state, so you might be surprised by what you find when you take on your expedition. The best time to visit New Jersey is early summer when the temperatures are beginning to heat up but you can still avoid the heavy mid- and late-summer crowds.
On your trip to New Jersey this summer, make sure to add a few of these destinations to your list:
  • Go to the Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, which features some of the strangest sculptures you may ever see.
  • Take a stroll across the campus of Princeton.
  • Go to Troy Meadows, where you can see endless fields of blooming lavender.
  • Take a dip in the ocean or veg out on the beach in the far-less-crowded
    Seaside Heights
    .
  • Shop for interesting yet delicious foods at the Amish Farmer’s Market in Mullica Hil.
