November on the ground
Weather & conditions
Late fall — bare trees, big skies. Highs near 55°F, lows near 38°F.
November is a wind-down month with real charm at the coast's tip — migration lingers even as facilities close.
What to do in November
- Late-season hawks and seabirds passing Cape May
- Empty-beach walks in golden light
- Early holiday lights in the historic towns
Best-fit rigs: Motorhome · Truck or van
Know before you go
Most seasonal campgrounds are closed by mid-November; nor'easter season returns.
Summer beach traffic is heavy on weekends. Nor'easters can flood coastal campgrounds in fall and winter.

Cape May Point State Park (Cape May Hawkwatch)
“Fall migration: hundreds of hawks are counted heading south down the peninsula, with the heaviest flights typically on cold fronts from late September through November”
Cape May Point, Cape May County, at the southern tip of New Jersey on the Delaware Bay · RV base: Day-use only — the 244-acre state park (gate hours roughly 8am–8pm) has a hawk-watch but no camping. Nearest RV bases are private campgrounds and RV resorts in the Cape May / Lower Township area of southern New Jersey, a few miles from the point.
