About Casino Pier

Casino Pier has stood on the Seaside Heights boardwalk since 1932. Walking onto the pier is free, and each ride is paid for with ride credits. The lineup includes the Hydrus coaster with its 97-degree drop, a 131-foot Ferris wheel, bumper cars, go-karts and a set of kiddie rides, plus mini golf and an arcade. Part of the pier collapsed into the ocean during Hurricane Sandy in 2012, and it has since been rebuilt and expanded.
