Judi’s 5 Favorite Family Attractions at Casino Pier Boardwalk

I have to share a great day I recently had at Casino Pier and Breakwater Beach. It's so much fun for families — plenty of activities from the waterpark to arcades, rides and go carts. As that one little guy in my video said, "When can we come back?!"

Here are a few of my favorite attractions:

1) Midway Games: Think of all your favorite childhood boardwalk games, like Balloon Dart, Basketball, Candy Wheel and more.

2) Tilt-a-Whirl: Who doesn't love this quintessential amusement park ride? Even younger children will enjoy the twists and turns.

3) Surf Shack: The Casino Pier website describes it as "a multi-level walk-through funhouse perfect for the beach bum in all of us." It's a great option for kids of all ages.

4) Shore Shot: This thriller ride launches you 125 feet up in the air at speeds up to 45 mph only to bring you right back down again. I have to admit, this one's too much for me but I love watching the looks on passengers' faces as they take off!

5) Bumper Cars: Listen to music and make the most of the freedom to bump into as many cars as you want, as Casino Pier employees say, without having to exchange insurance information.

Of course, they have all your favorite board walk food, including waffles and ice cream, deep fried Oreos and curly fries. And if you're ready for some water fun, you can pop over to Breakwater Beach, too!
