If you want to give your credit card some exercise, head out to Atlantic City Boardwalk, a popular place for shoppers in Midtown South. Hotels.com travelers also say the area is walkable and has lots of nice beaches. It's also full of great shops and restaurants, so you can spend the afternoon having a wander. Splash some more cash at Playground Pier, Tanger Outlets The Walk, and Quarter at Tropicana.
You could catch an event at MetLife Stadium, a major stadium located 6.8 mi (10.9 km) from the center of Jersey City. Let yourself be amazed at the art galleries and museums in the area too. If you think MetLife Stadium is cool, you also might like Meadowlands Sports Complex, located nearby.
