Campgrounds near West Wildwood, New Jersey
West Wildwood is a small residential borough on a barrier island between North Wildwood and Wildwood Crest, on the southern Jersey Shore. There are no campgrounds on the Wildwoods barrier island itself, but Cape May County has a cluster of private RV parks across the peninsula. Most are within a short drive of the West Wildwood bridges, concentrated along Route 9 and Seashore Road between Cape May Court House and Lower Township.
The closest options for RV travelers include Sun Outdoors Cape May, Holly Shores Campground, Beachcomber Camping Resort, Shellbay Campgrounds, and Adventure Bound Cape May. Camping near the Wildwoods ranges from full-hookup RV resorts to tent sites and cabin rentals, with most properties within a few miles of the Atlantic coast and the Wildwoods beaches and boardwalk.
These parks put travelers within easy reach of the free Wildwoods beaches, the boardwalk, Morey's Piers, and the historic Victorian streets of Cape May, while keeping the RV parked in a shaded, family oriented setting away from the island congestion.
Things to do near West Wildwood
The main draw is the coast. The area has miles of wide sand beaches, and the Wildwoods boardwalk spans thirty-eight blocks with rides, water parks, shops, and dining. Morey's Piers operates the amusement rides and two beachfront water parks a short drive from any of the nearby campgrounds.
Families also head inland to Cape May County Park and Zoo in Cape May Court House, a free admission zoo with picnic areas and playgrounds, and to the Naval Air Station Wildwood Aviation Museum at the county airport. Historic Cape May adds Victorian trolley tours, the Cape May Lighthouse, and whale and dolphin watching cruises from the harbor.
For quieter time outdoors, Cape May Point State Park has hiking trails, and the Cape May National Wildlife Refuge is a spot for ospreys and shorebirds along the Delaware Bay.

The Cape May camping season is short and coastal. Most private campgrounds serving the Wildwoods area operate roughly April through October, with the majority closing during winter. Sun Outdoors Cape May is open April 15 to October 31, which is typical for the cluster. Belleplain State Forest campsites are open all year, providing an alternative when seasonal parks are closed.
July and August are peak season. Beaches, boardwalk rides, and campgrounds all run at capacity, and weekend sites book out well in advance. Late spring and early fall bring lighter crowds, warm ocean water into September, and easier reservations, though many parks still require two or three night minimums on summer weekends.
October is a distinctive shoulder window, with several parks running fall themed weekends and trick or treating through the campground. November through March, expect closures across most private campgrounds and colder, wetter conditions on the barrier islands.
How to book
Nearly all campgrounds serving West Wildwood are privately owned, so reservations run through each park's own website or phone line rather than a central portal like Recreation.gov. Sun Outdoors Cape May, Holly Shores Campground, Beachcomber Camping Resort, Shellbay Campgrounds, and Adventure Bound Cape May each maintain online booking or phone reservations with site filters for RV length, hookups, and pull through access.
Reservations are essential during summer weekends and holidays when occupancy reaches capacity. Book Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day weekends several months out.
For year round or last minute stays when private parks are closed, Belleplain State Forest takes online reservations at camping.nj.gov, the New Jersey State Park Service portal.
What to expect
Expect wooded, developed RV parks rather than wilderness camping. Beachcomber Camping Resort is a 100-acre wooded park with full service resort amenities, about 4 miles to the Wildwood and Cape May boardwalks and beaches. Sun Outdoors Cape May sits in a 38-acre woodland setting a short drive from the Jersey Shore, with full hookup RV sites plus cabin and cottage rentals.
Most properties offer full hookup RV sites, pools, playgrounds, camp stores, laundry, and Wi-Fi, and welcome pets with restrictions. Sites tend to be close together in high season, and traffic on Route 47, Route 9, and the Garden State Parkway spur into the Wildwoods can be heavy on summer Fridays and Sundays.
Mosquitoes and greenhead flies are common in July and August. Bring screens, repellent, and beach tags where required by the individual Wildwoods municipalities.
