There is so much to see and do during your stay in Wildwood, a family-friendly destination that has hosted to generations, past and present. There’s something for everyone!
Just two blocks from Esplanade Suites sits a 5-mile expanse of powdery-white beaches, offering everything from swimming and surfing to snoozing in the sun and catching up on the latest bestseller. Wildwood’s beaches are ranked as some of the best in the nation, with concerts, movies, festivals, and sports tournaments throughout the year.
Wildwood’s Boardwalk provides two miles of outrageous fun and excitement. Neon lights, souvenir shops, and delicious eateries are just a few of the sights you will encounter, as well as arcade and carnival-style games and amusements. The Boardwalk offers more rides than Disneyland, including seven world-class roller coasters and the most family and kiddie rides at the Jersey Shore.
Wildwood also boasts miniature golf, jet skiing, parasailing, wave running, surfing, and speedboat rentals. Sporting opportunities such as golf, basketball, tennis, beach volleyball, biking and bocce ball are all available as well.
Looking for a quieter pace? Take a scenic boat cruise and watch the dolphins. Or rent a boat and indulge in deep sea and surf fishing. Do some sightseeing and take in Hereford Inlet Lighthouse, the Naval Air Station or the nearby village of Cape May. Experience the unique feel of Wildwood by taking the Doo Wop Trolley Tour, an enduring favorite.
If casinos are your game, you are only 45 minutes from Atlantic City. Outlet shopping is only an hour and a half via ferry ride to Delaware. Don’t forget the nightlife: Wildwood offers up the best talent in the local comedy clubs, as well as top nightclub action.
