Thank you so much fot3 tuning in and have a great safe trip. 👍👍😎😎⛱⛱

My family went to wildwood every summer for 20 years. This video brought back so many great family memories. Not much on the boardwalk has changed. Our beach house was on 23rd street in North Wildwood. We were a block off the boardwalk. The first place I would hit when we got there was Sam's Pizza. It was right there at 23rd and the walk. A pepperoni slice and a birch beer. It's been at least 30 years since I've been there. I'm so glad I found your video. Might just have to take a road trip for a long weekend. Thank for posting

Thanks for the Sams location. We stayed at 20th & the board wake at the Beach Cove & Beach Court hotels. Kinda of remember that Sams had two.locations before they moved into the big place at 26 th Street. Sams owner and the shorts pizza maker both died last year.Joey C on his Uribe site raid that Sams will be open on weekends starting in February2023. Never get tied if hearing " Watch the tram car please ".

If you go back in sure you'll see lots has changed. Hunt's peir is gone, the castle is gone, burned down in '02. Most of the Doo Wop hotels and motels are gone to. It's been sad to see all that go but Wildwood is still a great place. I still get down there every year for at least a day.

The Ghost ship is a walk through attraction. The cars you saw on the elevated track is called The Flying Galeon. It's a small kind of skyride that takes you over the Waterpark. It's fairly unrelated to the ghost ship other than the ship was built over the entrance to it. Wildwood seaguls are famous for their veracity. Though there are many like it, the Sea Serpent was the first Vacoma boomarang built in 1984. A year later they added the Giant Wheel, which stands 156 feet above the beach and boardwalk. 2 rides are a must, one in the daytime and one at night. I've been to Wildwood every year for 46 years. It's my happy place. Thanks for the video.

The 5 original wildwood Tram cards were brought to Wildwood from the New York 1939 world fair. Greyhound had a transportation contract for the fair and called them the Greyhound trackless trains. They've been on service on the Wildwood boardwalk since 1949.

My family goes down every year (only year of my life I haven’t gone down was 2020, for obvious reasons), and we have a tradition of always eating dinner at that particular Hot Spot the first night of our vacation. There are 2 or 3 Hot Spots on the boardwalk, but it always has to be that one for us :)

BUT I’ve wanted to go to nj since I watched the Jersey shore(please no hate lol) and for a first timer where would you recommend (wildwood, ocean city nj or seaside heights??)

@Grammasjewels Born and raised there. Moved away before the decline. I go back to see family and friends. Trust me, its taken a seriously bad turn. WalMart moving in didnt help. And the quaint little motels took a hit after 9/11, and resorted to housing Section 8 just to keep the cash flowing. All visitors see is the boardwalk and beaches, and thats all the city council cates about.
