      I used to go to seaside heights a lot as a kid. But never went back there after sandy. But yeah seaside is where it's at. I've gone to wildwood plenty of times but I didn't get the same vibe. Think cause the boardwalk is shorter and didnt have the arcades I like in seaside

    Wildwood, no contest. Wildwood is cleaner, has wider beaches(seriously, you could film Dune there), and has a much bigger boardwalk with the most amazing amusement piers in the country. My only complaint is that not all of the original piers are still in operation, and Castle Dracula is sorely missed. If all five amusement piers were back in operation and a new horror attraction was added, it would be perfect.

    The rides in seaside hold a special spot in my heart that wildwood just cant fill, (rides before hurricane sandy) and the views of the piers from the boardwalk have always been so iconic especially funtown pier with the ferris wheel and tower of fear along to the back end of casino pier woth star jet stillwalk and the log flume, something about it is very hypnotic and wildwood just doesnt have the same charm. ALSO BIG NEWS FUNTOWN PIER IS OFFICIALLY BEING REBUILT AT THIS MOMENT!!

    My opinion: Ocean City is the best boardwalk in NJ. But if i had to pick between the two, it is Wildwood. It is much cleaner, less miscreants, and i am saying this because of my Philadelphia roots. The only thing that Seaside Does better is their arcades.

    As a youth, it was Seaside Heights for me, bar none. Sadly due to the decay of the place due to Hurricane Sandy, coupled with the fire that burned down so much of the place, not to mention the ilk of people that go there (thanks to "Jersey Shore"), now it is Wildwood for me. Seaside will always have a special place in my heart, the Seaside I remember from 1971 until the early to mid 1990s. I was blessed to make new memories with my son going to Wildwood, so now Wildwood is #1 to me.

    First Of All Wildwood Is Beast. Seaside Is Where All The Drunks Go. Wildwood Has 3 Amazing Huge Roller Coasters One Is Wooden And The Other 2 Have Loops & Go Upside Down. Wildwood Has 3 Water Parks On The Boardwalk. Seaside Might Have A Closer Beach BUT You Have To Pay To Get On It. In Wildwood EVERYONE Gets On For Free! Seaside Has The Same Rides Wildwood But Does Seaside Have A Giant Ferris Wheel? A Ghost Ship? A Log Flume? A Sling Shot? Go Carts? I Rest My Case.

    Wildwood use to have a lot of great restaurants but last 3 suppers eating out were extremely disappointed. Waited 45 minutes to get a seat at piss poor Uries. Both of us were served lousy meals including 2 ice cold baked potatoes. Asked waitress for a drink refill when she dropped off salad and never got it. Dump is a huge tourist trap. Ended up driving over to Lobster House in Cape May for a great meal. Wildwood had too many ahole drunk kids especially on weekends. Now only go there one long weekend a year and two weeks at cleaner, cheaper, quieter better class of people in Ocean City MD.
