A wide beach that appeals to families.

Absolutely one of the cleanest, largest and most importantly free beaches in New Jersey. After spending time here you will not want to go anyplace else.

Wildwood Dog Beach

Reviewed By tskatuler - West Chester, United States

We live in Cape May but we split our time between Maple Avenue in Wildwood and Higbee Beach in Cape May. These are the BEST dog beaches in the area. Both are always crowded with fur babies. ❤️???? Wildwood has their own entrance on Maple Avenue that goes under the boardwalk. Highly recommend bringing a wagon or carrying your pup, if small. The sand gets very hot and it’s not a short walk to the water. They do have a plank walkway to make the walk more bearable though. If you stay near the boardwalk vs heading toward the ocean, there’s a fenced in park- one section is for large dogs and the other section is for small dogs. Just look for the large red fire hydrant- that’s how you know you’ve arrived at the dog beach. Dogs are not allowed on the Wildwood Boardwalk between Memorial Day and Labor Day unless they’re in a wagon or stroller. You won’t get yelled out though if you’re just making your way from the parking lot to the dog beach. At the beach, keep your dog leashed. Dogs are not allowed to roam free. You will be asked to leave if your dog is off the leash. After 6P, depending on the amount of people, you may have a little more freedom. The dog beach is not very wide- look for the markers. Also make sure you clean up after your dog and yourselves. Bring lots of water, an umbrella or shade tent for your dog and enjoy!!

Seaport Aquarium

Reviewed By ellendF8497JK - Detroit, United States

In the past 5 or so years, this exhibit has been non-stop improving and getting more amazing. I think there is a new owner, well not "new" anymore b/c it's 2019 but new from when I started visiting b/c it's like night and day better from 10 years ago. Every year the exhibits get bigger and bigger. I can feed so many of the animals. The alligators have land and water and I can feed these pellets of nutrient-rich food to them. They are brown and fall in the water for them to catch. I suppose they must dye the water sometimes when the animals are full but the water was clean when I was there. Nutrient-rich food seems to be a common theme. I got a tour from the owner who was super knowledgable on all the animals and he told me so many of them are rescued from bad environments. I rescued my dog so I love that he does that. I saw him giving fresh bananas and grapes and veggies to the animals. That's food I even love! Anyways. a few points that make me come back year over year. -to watch the animals grow. The owner obviously takes good care of these creatures every winter. -to watch the improvements he makes to the infrastructure and the exhibits. it just gets better and better. -in hopes for more tours. If you can get the owner to give you one, it's so worth it. -it a super affordable thing to do on what adds up to be a pricey vacation for the week. -it's fun for all ages. My advice. go for sure. Esp if you have kids. It's super cool and educational.

Great Park! Has an awesome basketball court (which our son loved), skateboard park (one of the nicest we've seen), ice rink, playground, pavilion and rest rooms. Worth a stop to have the kids burn some energy off!
