In 1903 Wildwood\u2019s leaders decided to provide a wide, elevated walkway closer to the ocean. It connected with Ocean Pier, the first amusement pier to be opened, at Poplar Avenue. During the first decade of the 20th century, the boardwalk spread across the shoreline, from Second Avenue in North Wildwood to Cresse Avenue in Wildwood\u00b9. Another boardwalk from Cresse to Aster Road in Wildwood Crest washed away in 1909 and was replaced by Seaview Avenue\u00b9.<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-65\" src=\"https:\/\/wildwoodinsider.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/62234084_ml-300x206.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildwoodinsider.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/62234084_ml-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wildwoodinsider.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/62234084_ml-1024x704.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wildwoodinsider.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/62234084_ml-768x528.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wildwoodinsider.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/62234084_ml-1536x1056.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wildwoodinsider.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/62234084_ml.jpg 1653w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>The Wildwood Boardwalk is home to many attractions including the beach, boardwalk, amusement piers, waterparks, aquariums, lighthouses and museums\u2075.
