When visiting the Jersey Shore, your first thought may be to take the family straight to the beach for some fun in the sun. We can’t blame you! We love spending time at Wildwood Beach in the summer. Other summer family-friendly activities in Wildwood are waiting for you this season.

East Coast Water Sports

Get ready to take on the waters of the Jersey Shore! East Coast Water Sports’ Wildwood location is home to unforgettable experiences in parasailing and guided boat tours. Their parasailing experience lifts you up 500ft over the sands of the Jersey Shore and you get to take in the unique sights of the Wildwood area. For an even more thrilling experience, hop on The Silver Bullet for an accelerating time on the Wildwoods oceanfront! The guided boat tour speeds through the water and if you keep your eyes peeled, you’ll be able to spot the local dolphin population and other marine life.
