You can't go to the Jersey shore
without visiting the Wildwood boardwalk - a 3 mile long, world
famous boardwalk! You can walk the boards, ride a bicycle at
specified times (see below), or ride the battery operated tram cars.
If you have ever been to Wildwood, I'm sure you can still remember
it - "Watch the tram car please". These trams run from almost sunup
- 9:00 AM to well past sundown - 1:00 AM. The tram in North Wildwood
runs from 10:00 am until 5:00 PM.

Kids of all ages enjoy all the
rides, games of chance and the carnival like atmosphere complete
with barkers. If you like to try to win a toy animal, to try your
hand at all sorts of games, to ride more rides than you can at
Disneyland, to be thrilled with roller coasters that turn you upside
down and to appreciate the magnificent view of Wildwood from the
tallest ferris wheel (140 feet high) on the East Coast, then
WILDWOOD IS FOR YOU! This boardwalk packs more fun than any other
place you will visit.....
The Boardwalk starts at 16th
Avenue in North Wildwood and ends up at Cresse Avenue - the start of
Wildwood Crest....36 blocks of fun. It was originally only 150 feet
long but has grown to almost 3 miles, plus has been moved closer to
the ocean twice. It's fun to ride bicycles from one end to the
other. Bicycling is permitted until 11:00 AM on weekdays, and until
10:30 on weekends and Holidays. No skating is allowed at any time.
Boardwalk events
includes: Doo Wop ’50s Nights on Monday, featuring parades, music,
and classic cars; the Cape Atlantic Irish Piper Brigade, also every
Monday night; Family Fun Night every Thursday, featuring parades,
clowns, and music (including Philadelphia-style string bands);
Movies on the Beach, Schellenger Avenue, every Friday night at 9 and
12; and Fireworks every Friday night at 11.
Believe it or not, The Wildwood
Boardwalk offers more rides than Disneyland! -
Amusements

The Boardwalk is traditionally open from Palm Sunday weekend through
Columbus Day, with a weekends-only schedule before Memorial Day and
