Wildwood in New Jersey attracts families from within and from neighboring states with its warm waters and an impressive selection of boardwalk entertainment and eateries. From the fun rides and carnival games at Morey’s Pier to salt water taffy treats and beach pies, the 38-block boardwalk is a huge draw for many visitors.

The beach itself is crowded with colorfully striped beach umbrellas. The occasional banner plane flies across the sunny skies, and the seagulls flap their wings overhead as they stake out fallen fries.
