Just daydreaming - Any civilised 1st landfall in New Jersey?

Just a vague idea for something that will probably never happen, but..........

As I am sure many of you know, New Jersey is named after somewhere else.........hence my nickname.

I was thinking it would be kinda cool to sail non stop from Jersey to New Jersey - stop for a few beers - and then sail back home. (Albeit I do appreciate that New Jersey was not actually "discovered" from here!)

I have done some Googling and New Jersey seems a big place and (without causing offence!) does seem to have a fair few towns that do not seem at first glance to be the most attractive of destinations. Especially as I won't be carrying any firearms. or buying any drugs. and will not want a crack ho'. probably

Any suggestions as to pleasant towns / cities in New Jersey that I could also clear through immigration into ? (I haven't Googled the immigration regs yet - but I will do so, as am not keen on a one way trip to cuba!)
