18 Times The Sun Made New Jersey The Most Beautiful Place On Earth

New Jersey is beautiful both day and night, and sometimes, the sun highlights our natural beauty. With vivid colors and luminescent rays, sunrises and sunsets are some of the most spectacular times of day. I’d like to present the following photos as evidence.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
