Picture this: camping under the stars on Wildwood’s pristine beach while the legendary Morey’s Piers lights up the boardwalk just steps away. That’s Morey’s Piers Spring Beach Jam, a group camping weekend on the beach at Morey’s Piers. In 2026 it ran May 29-31, the weekend after Memorial Day; 2027 dates have not been announced yet.

Where to Stay for Beach Jam

While Beach Jam includes beach camping as part of the experience, many families prefer the comfort of nearby accommodations for part of their stay. Coastal Collection’s five hotels are a few blocks from the beach and the Boardwalk, making it easy to pop back to your room for hot showers, air conditioning breaks, or to store extra gear while you enjoy the festivities.
