Mariner's Arcade

Reviewed By papipeguym

I just returned from another trip to the beach and it wouldn't be complete without stopping at Mariner's Arcade. The staff is super friendly and everyone was wearing masks. They put safety barriers between all of the games because of the Covid-19 virus. They strictly enforce that EVERYONE will wear a mask that MUST cover your nose and mouth at all times. The staff was cleaning everything and I felt comfortable there because of the safety precautions they have in place. The games are alof of fun to play and they have a great prize selection. Thanks Morey's for another great visit!

Encounters

There are 3 attractions at Encounters. First, there is a one of a kind, alien themed mirror maze. There are thousands of reflections, black lights, LED lighting effects, and even a few aliens to greet you along the way. Second, there is a laser maze. It's like in Mission Impossible, you try to avoid the lasers, complete 3 objectives, and escape the space vault in the fastest time possible. Lastly, there is Time Freak, which is a real life whack-a-mole game. You try to hit the lights on the wall as quickly as possible in order to achieve the high score.

What a fun experience! We were in town on a rainy day and decided to try the escape room with my mom and daughter. We had Ariel as our game master and she was so helpful. Always there when we needed a clue. Aunt Millie’s room was challenging but not too hard for my 9 year old daughter. I would recommend this to everyone looking for something fun to do !

OC Escape was the first escape room I’ve ever done and we had the time of our lives. We traveled through time and even got to choose our own destiny in the room. I would highly recommend this for family and friends to have fun together, escape the room, and maybe play mini golf afterwards. I can’t wait to go back and try their other room.

Belmont Evening Of Fun & Magic

Featured on NBC News 10, kids and adults love Belmont's Evening of Fun & Magic and its Open-Air Theater of Magic at 8 pm, every Fri, Sat & Sun thru Labor Day. Six talented artists present Magic, Marionettes, Escapes & Spectacular Illusions. All presented with comfortable padded chairs, artistic scrim surround, and socially distanced, disinfected seating in accordance with CDC guidelines.

Saw the Belmont Magic Show here on Sunday August 23, 2020 @8PM and it was a GREAT show! All summer I kept wanting to take my daughter and sadly kept forgetting; I'm soo happy I FINALLY had the chance to take her! It was a GREAT show and I HIGHLY recommend it as an AFFORDABLE & FUN family outing for kids of all ages! Literally your teenagers will also end up being amazed! Her father who literally thinks NOTHING is "cool" and ruins the fun in just about everything; he couldn't even explain Mr. Belmont's magic! Definitely 5 stars and a MUST SEE! We are definitely hoping they return to Wildwood again next summer! Tickets are I believe $15 but if you visit the local ice cream shop ((Wild Scoops)) along the strip of stores right next door to the show; you'll receive a $5 off coupon with your purchase if you mention your going to the show. Your also allowed to bring your ice cream into the show however they do sell popcorn, water & sno cones so I do recommend at least supporting their business in some way if your going to also bring in outside snacks. For instance, we brought in ice cream but we bought a popcorn & water from the stand as well. They also sell magic tricks but tbh don't waste your money, it is so old and will immediately end up in the trash. That's the one & only place I'd say they could do better. Finally, after an already GREAT show; the young assistants whom I assume are his daughter's; they come out and distribute a magicians hat or wand to each child in the audience and Mr. Belmont and his wife come out for pictures with the guests even during a pandemic when they could get away with not meeting with fans they still are kind enough to take the time out thanking & greeting any & all fans that decide to hang around after the show. As if it wasn't already a great show, as we were leaving the kind woman working the concessions stand came out with a bunch of extra Cotton Candy bags and distributed it to the remaining kids as they walked out! Many places just throw them out and they could have done the same but instead they put huge smiles on kids faces as they each walked away with 2-3 bags of cotton candy. Such small gestures yet such kind gestures that go a long way. All in all, it was a GREAT show and I HIGHLY recommend you take your family to see it if Wildwood is lucky enough to have them return! I wish they did more events like this! ????????????????

Naval Air Station Wildwood Aviation Museum

Naval Air Station Wildwood Foundation is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to restore Hangar #1 at the Cape May Airport, Cape May County, New Jersey, into an aircraft museum honoring the Navy airmen who died while training during World War II. Hangar # 1 was listed onto the National Register of Historic Places in September of 1997. Naval Air station (NAS) Wildwood was commissioned on April 1, 1943. The site served as an active dive-bomber squadron training facility from 1943 to 1945. Aircraft stationed at NAS Wildwood included TBM Avengers, Douglas Dauntlesses, Vought Corsairs and Curtiss Helldivers. Forty-two airmen perished while training at NAS Wildwood during World War II. In June 1997, NASW Foundation purchased Hangar #1 at the Cape May Airport. The 92,000 square-foot all-wooden structure was in a state of disrepair and required extensive renovation. Under the stewardship of NASW Foundation, the hangar was listed on the New Jersey and National Registers of Historic Places at the National Significance Level. NAS Wildwood Aviation Museum now boasts over 26 aircraft displays as well as exhibits of military memorabilia, engines, photographs and more. Additionally, the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia has provided NAS Wildwood with a wealth of interactive exhibits that allow visitors to discover the science of flight. The museum also features a library, food vending area as well as a recently expanded gift shop. In its role as a community resource, NAS Wildwood Aviation Museum regularly hosts activities including fly-ins, aviation festivals, big band concerts, swing dances, veterans’ ceremonies, historical lectures, school field trips and senior tours.

Great exhibits for all ages, had complete access to airplanes. Was very informative, with an emphasis on local WWII history. There are also many interactive and hands on exhibits. You can even get inside the various airplanes! The highlight of our visit was when Dr. Salvatore personally took us around and showed us behind the scene projects they were working on. He even took the time to tell us the story of how he acquired an engine for Boeing 777 and explained the history of many exhibits. It was such a great visit and will definitely be back again!
