Wildwood is a city in Cape May County, New Jersey. On January 1, 1912, Wildwood was incorporated as a city. A building boom began in the 1950s, due partially to the construction and completion of the Garden State Parkway in 1955.

The world-famous Wildwoods Boardwalk is two miles long and holds 4 gigantic piers with breath-taking rides and amusements, hundreds of stores, games, restaurants and more.

Getting Around: The Wildwoods Boardwalk Sightseer Tram Cars were originally built for the 1939 Worlds Fair in New York City. In 1949, Gilbert Ramagosa purchased five of the electric powered cars and put them into service on the Wildwoods Boardwalk. For fifty-six continuous years the Tram Cars have ferried tens of millions of visitors and locals alike along the Boardwalk. The Tram Cars can operate for up to 12 hours at a time on the power of a single 2,000 pound electric battery! Today, eight Tram Cars traverse the Boardwalk. A $3.00 fare provides seating one-way on the Tram Car and transports visitors to their desired destinations along the two-mile walk. The Tram Cars run a continuous loop from Cresse Avenue on the Wildwood/Wildwood Crest border to 16th Street in North Wildwood. Service begins each year, on a limited basis, Easter Weekend. As the season progresses and customer demand increases a 11:00 AM to approximately 1:00 AM schedule prevails. Tram service is available through mid-September weekdays and weekends.
