 
The Wildwoods is an island made up of three prominent sections: North Wildwood, located just north of the center of Wildwood with Wildwood Crest, which is just to the south. With year-round events, miles of wide, white sandy beaches, a fun-filled boardwalk and endless places to play, shop and eat, The Wildwoods is a great place to vacation!
New Jersey maintains the highest standards in ocean water quality of any state in the country and was rated "New Jersey's Best Sport Beach" by Travel Holiday Magazine. Beachgoers can glide along the sand of The Wildwood’s expansive beaches on the State's first beach tram, introduced in 1994, traveling from the street to the shoreline.
The 38-block Wildwood boardwalk is lined with amusement piers, water parks, specialty shops, theaters, eateries and restaurants. This 2.5 mile wooden walkway has something for kids of all ages. Ride a bike along the promenade from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m., take a leisurely stroll or ride the tram cars while enjoying a breathtaking view of the Atlantic.
