Built in 1870, this wooden path stands as the first of its kind in America. What started as a quick fix for Sandy hotels and rail cars turned into something much bigger. Now millions walk these planks each year.
State tourism trackers watch the numbers climb each year. The path beats out big names like Six Flags and Liberty State Park by a wide margin.
When stacked against other state attractions in a national poll, this seaside stretch came out on top. The numbers tell the story: more feet hit these boards than any other New Jersey site.
Steps away, guests find bright casino lights and ocean views. The mix of games, rest stops, and beach access creates a perfect storm of fun. Food stands, shops, and shows line the walk, each turn bringing something new, keeping the crowds coming through every season.
Summer brings waves of visitors to this coastal hub. The boardwalk sits at the center of New Jersey's beach scene, drawing crowds from across the country.
The path stretches into nearby beach towns, spreading good fortune along the shore. Small shops and big hotels all share in the success of this wooden wonder.
