Many homes offer views of the bay or private docks, making it a great pick for boating, kayaking, or sunset watching. The town is connected to Wildwood by a small bridge, giving you easy access to Morey’s Piers, the boardwalk, and restaurants—without having to stay in the middle of the crowd. Visitors love the slower pace here, whether they’re walking dogs along the bulkhead or sipping coffee on a bayside deck. Best times to visit are late spring through early fall, when the water sparkles and breezes keep things cool. West Wildwood is Jersey Shore serenity—with just the right splash of adventure nearby.
