Take the ferry for the scenery
Don't take the ferry to save money, or time, but if you want to enjoy the scenery or make a stopover, take the coastal route. The ferry will probably also cost more than the Maryland and Delaware toll roads. The Garden State Parkway will then probably cost about the same as the NJ Turnpike, but it is a much more pleasant drive.
We traveled through the NJ coast in January, boy it was COLD then! Should be a lot warmer now. We enjoyed the deserted Atlantic City boardwalk, the Noyes Museum north of town, and the adjacent wildlife refuge. The ferry ride was uneventful, but once we were down at Cape May the ferry was definitely the shortest route.
You might need reservations.
