Why you should go…

Family Kingdom has operated on the south end of the boardwalk since 1966, keeping an old-fashioned amusement-pier feel with about 35 rides. The wooden Swamp Fox roller coaster and the Ferris wheel are longtime favorites, and an adjoining water park offers slides and a lazy river for hot afternoons. Individual ride tickets or an all-day wristband are both available.
