Wildwoods’ Boardwalk Named Best in America

It's shaping up to be another great summer in the Wildwoods!

As we head towards the best season of all, a nice accolade for the famous Wildwoods Boardwalk!

(In case you're wondering, we're using the term "Wildwoods' Boardwalk" because the boardwalk is actually located in three different communities: The City of Wildwood, North Wildwood, and Wildwood Crest.)

Wildwoods' Boardwalk is #1 in the USA

Readers of USA Today have voted, and the people have spoken: The Wildwoods' Boardwalk is the winner of the Best Boardwalk category in the 10Best Readers' Choice Awards for 2025.

The boardwalk was initially nominated by a panel of experts, and then readers gave it their vote.

The Wildwoods' Boardwalk beat out other boardwalks from New Jersey, California, Texas, Virginia, Maine, and Delaware.
