Looking to avoid a repeat of the chaos that plagued last Memorial Day weekend, the #Wildwoods are putting “proactive measures” in place to curb unaccompanied kids on the boardwalk later at night and keep the #JerseyShore town “a safe, family-friendly vacation destination.”

On May 13, 2025, the Wildwoods announced what it called “enhanced safety measures” that include a 10 p.m. curfew for anyone 17 and under, a backpack ban on the boardwalk, increased police presence, protective barriers at boardwalk entrances and “real-time” surveillance monitoring.

“The Wildwoods have long been known as a safe, family-friendly vacation destination, and its zero tolerance policies have been a main contributing factor for that reputation,” the vacation destination said. “The additional safety measures will provide even greater protection for all visitors.”

“We want everyone to feel welcome and enjoy the #MemorialDay festivities here in The Wildwoods,” Greater Wildwoods Tourism and Improvement Development Authority Executive Director Louis Belasco said. “At the same time, we are taking a firm stance on public safety. These measures ensure a safe, family-friendly atmosphere for all.”
