^Wtf? It's not really a club location. The Jersey shore is very different depending on where you go. The northern half of the shore is mostly infested with New Yorkers, especially people from Long Island and Staten Island and is more geared toward the younger, party crowd, but if you head further south, it's much nicer. If you go to more southern locations such as Long Beach Island(LBI), Wildwood or Cape May, it's much quieter, much cleaner, more family friendly and it's not filled with idiots from NY. There is however a large amount of tourists from Quebec there, but they certainly never bothered me like the people from NY do.
So bottom line is anywhere north of LBI is infested with people from NY and is more party oriented and anywhere from LBI and south is more family oriented and geared toward the family vacation crowd.
yea except for wildwood yo...Wildwood definately aint quite the family destination...I mean lots of families go there for sure but its the odd one out of the south south jerz shore towns. Wildwood is where all the ghetto folks from Philly and Camden go on vacation, and alot of hood folks from north jerz goes there too cuz its alot cheaper than seaside. Theres actually a decent amount of bloods in wildwood sellin dope and weed and shit like that. The town itself, theres parts that they tryna make all nice, like the way the knocked down all those old motels to make bigass condos and apartments and shit, but when you go up by north wildwood especially, theres some areas gettin a little ran down.
Aint nothin like a real hood, but ive heard folks that aint seen much real ghettoness call wildwood "seedy" and shit like that. compared to AC it aint nothin like that, but wildwood got its own spirit, ...It used to be THE spot, alot lijke asbury park in the early part of the 1900s, til the early 60s and they built all these motels, nowadays most of em is gone but the ones that is left is all ran down...Just blocks n blocks of all these different motels, each one with its own theme and color scheme and shit...each year when I go down the shore n look theres less and less, but its still awesome. I like it way better becuz of the vibe there, all these kinda dilapidated little beach motels with names that are tryna make you feel like you in florida or hawaii and not new jersey...some of them go for the exotic theme like the Shalimar and Aladdin, and some seem to be aimin for a Vegas vibe...but every one is definately original thats for sure. aint nothin like the bland ass boring condos and days inns and shit that they got in most other shore towns these days.
(some of these are gone now, but some are still there....just sharin some of the hotels/signs that make wildwood wat it is)
(vintage...much more beat up these days, but still there

)
(the Kona Kai, Wakiki, and Ala Kai are 3 of Wildwoods "Hawaiian" hotels, there was also the Hialeah and the Hawaii Kai, but they demolished now

, oh yea also the Royal Hawaiian, there was prolly more but thats the ones I can think of. The Wakiki is covered with black lava rocks and has the polynesian mask/totem pole type things, fake palm trees, and thatched/straw roof type awnings to make it look like a "jungle hut" i guess, lol...)
Well, Ima stop postin pics now cuz theres a 25 image limit and i dont want this post to take forever to load....But wildwood is special, it aint like seaside or no other towns down the shore IMO....I love the mix of 50's optimism in all the bright colored motels and signs, each one is unique, mixed with the slightly seedy atmosphere of everything bein kinda ran down, and the boardwalk where you can get more than one kind of drugs...The way its just ever so slightly a lil bit ghetto, mixed with the shore town vibe and bright lights and everything, its just a great place, I love wildwood and its my absolute favorite place to go in the summer...
Honestly, I been to LBI and thought it was boring as FUCK...Maybe I was missin somethin, but it seemed suuuuuper "family oriented" there. it was the lamest 'down the shore' destination I ever been, even lamer than Ocean City which is snooty as fuck and no alcohol allowed.
Anyways...LOL...my post about how wildwood aint one of the neat and tidy " family" shore towns ended up bein a whole story about its history and how much i love it, haha...But anyways....Enjoy the pics yall...
