The well-respected website 24/7 Tempo searched far and wide for the most beautiful natural attraction in each state, and the one they chose to top the list in the Garden State is a jaw-dropping place.

You would assume that since New Jersey is known worldwide for the beauty of its beaches, this location would be at the coast, and it certainly is.

It's also an amazing state park, and when you put those clues together, it narrows the possibilities.

If you guessed the attraction being honored here is Island Beach State Park, then you are exactly right.

This amazing New Jersey gem is mentioned in the same breath as Lake Tahoe, California, Niagara Falls in New York, and the Nah Pali Coast in Hawaii in this article, and that is some beautiful company to keep.

The article mentions that Island Beach State Park looks almost the same as when Henry Hudson described it over 400 years ago, and not many places in New Jersey can claim that.

This stunning barrier island spans 10 miles, and, as all New Jersey residents know, it's one of the biggest summer destinations in the state.

Henry Hudson first described this beautiful place as he viewed the shoreline from his ship known as Half Moon in 1609.
