Explore These Cape May Indoor Activities

Whether you’re a guest of the city or a local looking for something unique to do in chilly temperatures, there are several indoor activities Cape May has to offer that let you showcase your skills, try something new, or explore history. They include:

Roller Skating at Convention Hall

If you want to get active but are looking for something more exciting than lifting weights or running on a treadmill, lace up your skates at Convention Hall. Open Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, this exciting event kicks off in December and runs through March, allowing you to get out any pent-up winter energy and practice your skating skills. It’s perfect for a family day with the kids or date night with your loved one.

Open Mic Nights at Cold Spring Brewery

You don’t have to be a professional musician to enjoy playing music or singing, especially at a brewery. Cold Spring Brewery offers weekly open mic nights to let guests display their talents. It’s a great option for those looking to try out some local beverages or even just see some of the area’s talented artists. There is also live music on Saturdays and Sundays, and the spot is dog- and family-friendly.

Pottery Classes at The Madd Potters’ Studio

If you’re looking for something crafty, consider taking a pottery class at The Madd Potters’ Studio. This studio has two locations in Cape May, offering workshops, classes, and private parties for people of all skill levels and ages. One location is inside The West End Garage, where there are more than 60 vendors you can check out after your class.

Cape May Day Spa

If you’re traveling with your spouse or friends, consider a day of pampering at the Cape May Day Spa. Specializing in massages, facials, and body wraps, this boutique spa is the perfect place to relax on a rainy day. Specialty treatments like foot reflexology or a scalp massage will leave you feeling refreshed and ready for the rest of your vacation.

This museum offers fun for the whole family, with 11 rooms that offer a mix of colonial, Victorian, and modern stylings.
