The sand, the surf, and the beautiful views! The countdown is on for Santa to trade in his winter boots for some flip-flops and enjoy summer at the Jersey Shore.

He's just giving his sleigh a little break and trading it in for a surfboard as he gets ready to make a special summer stop in Cape May this weekend.

It's Christmas in July at the Cape May Lighthouse! So, if you're looking for something fun to do this weekend, join in on the celebration. The kids are going to love it, and you will too!

And YES, Santa will be there!

You can spend time playing games, and be sure to take lots of photos. You can also do a little shopping as regional vendors will be there selling a bunch of handmade items. The Cape May County Bookmobile will also be there.

And if you're up for a little adventure, take the climb to the top of the Cape May Lighthouse. It's 199 steps to the top, and as you make your way up, think of the beautiful views waiting for you when you get to the top!
