The Wildwoods in New Jersey

By Deb Schwabe

Did you know the Wildwoods in New Jersey were voted as the most popular beaches in New Jersey last year? In the list of top 10 New Jersey beaches, they scored in spots 1,2 and 4- pretty impressive! Wildwood includes three main sections: Wildwood Crest, North Wildwood and Wildwood, which is the central portion.

One hugely popular attraction in Wildwood, NJ is the boardwalk. The Wildwood boardwalk is amazingly long and is jam packed full of rides, entertainment, food, games and more. Youll find everything from fresh cut French fries to water ice to just about anything you can think of to nibble on!

You cant go to the Wildwood boardwalk without visiting Morey's Piers. They are known for the wild and fun roller coasters as well as the place for rides for small children. Theres truly something for every age range. You can bring your younger children and teens to the same place, and everyone is happy!

If youre a little overwhelmed by the length of the Wildwood boardwalk, have no fear- the Wildwood tram will make a quick trip of it. The tram is a slow moving train of sort that travels the length of the boardwalk, so you dont have to walk when youre feet start to tire!

If youre a sunbather, you love the Wildwood beaches. Not only are they free, but they also get high marks for being super wide and super clean! In New Jersey, its a rare treat to have a free beach, but youll find miles of free beaches in Wildwood.

No matter what kind of outdoor activity youre looking for, youll find lots of fun options in the Wildwoods. Youll find dolphin watching tours, bike riding, water sports and more.

If youre looking for a place to stay, Wildwood has a huge assortment of choices. Youll find beach rentals, hotels, and condos in all sizes, styles and shapes! What I love is you can find something for every price range. Its truly a family friendly destination.

The Wildwoods are known having a retro feel, with their Doo Wop style, and retro architecture. Youll find lots of bright and bold colors, along with playful sweeping designs. Did you know you can even find a Doo Wop museum and tour in Wildwood?

New Jersey has a great summer playground in the Wildwoods. If youre looking for an active and fun family getaway, consider Wildwood, NJ.
