New Jersey is famous for so much, including Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, pizza, pork roll, high taxes, and of course our sandy beaches, which are some of the best in the world!

The folks at NJ.com just released their ranking of all 44 beaches up and down the Jersey coast from Monmouth, Ocean. Atlantic and Cape May Counties.

The criteria for the list included beach quality, crowd, size, parking and available places for recreation food and drink.

Here's how our South Jersey beaches fared on the best beach list:

#44 Wildwood - Not sure why one of my favorite beaches ranks so low

#39 North Wildwood

#35 Margate City - Another beautiful South Jersey beach

#34 Brigantine

#33 Ventnor City

#30 Atlantic City

#27 Sea Isle City

#16 Avalon

#15 Strathmere

#13 Wildwood Crest - Great place to stay for a family vacation!

#10 Stone Harbor - The first South Jersey beach to crack the Top 10!

#7 Cape May Point

#3 Ocean City - Love spending time on the OC boards!

#1 Cape May - Can't say I disagree with this pick. What a beautiful beach!
