Wildwood Live

About

Surfside is the northernmost of Morey's three piers, at 25th Avenue in North Wildwood. Its big rides are the Great Nor'Easter, a coaster that turns riders upside down after a 95-foot drop; AtmosFEAR, a 140-foot free-fall tower; IT, a pendulum that swings and spins riders up to 65 feet; and the Doo Wopper, a twisting wild-mouse coaster. Zoom Phloom is a log flume with two coaster-like drops, and the Runaway Tram is a family coaster.

Younger kids have their own rides, including Happy Feet, Kiddie Boats, Cycle and a carousel, and Dante's Dungeon is a dark ride. Ocean Oasis water park is behind the pier.

History

Surfside is where Morey's began. The Morey brothers opened a pier here in 1969 around a fiberglass slide called Wipe Out, which cost 25 cents a ride. It was known as Morey's Pier until the mid-2000s, when it took the Surfside name.

When to go

Surfside is closed for the winter and reopens each spring. Each pier keeps its own schedule, so check the park hours page before you go. Ocean Oasis, behind the pier, has separate hours.
