North Wildwood has long
enjoyed the reputation
of being one of the
finest beach resorts along the New Jersey coast.
In the early 1600's, the Lenni Lenape
Indians visited this area each summer to fish,
relax and cool off on these beaches.
By 1870 a
small group of Swedish fisherman had discovered
the beauty of the area and the bounty of the
sea, and built homes on the northern end of the
island. They named their settlement Anglesea.
Today this tiny quaint fishing village has grown
into a beautiful and exciting island resort,
still beckoning visitors to return each summer
to fish, relax and cool off on their beaches.
The newly restored Hereford
Inlet Lighthouse is the pride of the residents
of North Wildwood. Built in 1874, this quaint
Victorian structure is considered one of the
most attractive and unusual lighthouses in New
Jersey.
