Every guest has different capabilities and limitations. Guests with temporary disabilities (such as casts and braces), as well as very tall or large framed guests, may be prohibited from riding many rides for safety reasons. Guests with heart or back conditions, as well as expectant mothers, should not participate in most rides. Please direct any further questions concerning your individual situation to Guests Services.

Can I bring my scooter or rollerblades with me?

Morey's Piers is a family destination. As such, radios, rollerblades, scooters, skateboards, etc... are not permitted on Morey's Piers property at any time. Bicycles are only permitted before 10 AM. Morey's Piers reserves the right to remove from the premises, without refund, any individual that prevents others from enjoying the Piers.

Yes. If you need to split your card, just visit Guest Services during park operating hours.

How many roller coasters does Morey’s Piers have?

We have 7 coasters, all of varying sizes and types.

Is every ride and attraction included with a Season Pass or Wristband?

Not on the Amusement Piers. While there are over 55 rides that are included with Season Passes and Pier Wristbands, certain rides and attractions - such as all Go Kart tracks, SkyCoasters, SkyScraper, and SpringShot are not included. These are considered additional pay attractions and are not included in our Wristband or Season Pass programs.

Who decides what the height requirements on each ride are supposed to be?

All rider requirements, including height, age, and weight restrictions, are determined by ride manufactures, the state of New Jersey, and Morey's Piers Management. All rider requirements are FOR YOUR SAFETY, are not negotiable, and will be strictly enforced at all times. Morey's Piers offers Official Height Measurement at any Pier Guest Services. If your child is on the borderline of any height requirement, please come to Guest Services upon your arrival and ask to be officially measured. An Associate will measure your child on a hospital quality Stadiometer and issue a wristband noting his or her exact height. Your child will still be measured at every ride, but if there is a question concerning height, the Operator will check the wristband and allow your child to ride if appropriate.

Do the amusement rides have height requirements?

Yes, most rides do have height and/or other requirements. All requirements are posted at each ride entrance. Please visit the rides page for more information. For your safety, all requirements will be strictly enforced at all times. Morey's Piers offers Official Height Measurement at any Pier Guest Services.

If your child is on the borderline of any height requirement, please come to Guest Services upon your arrival and ask to be officially measured. An Associate will measure your child on a hospital quality Stadiometer and issue a wristband noting his or her exact height. Your child will still be measured at every ride, but if there is a question concerning height, the Operator will check the wristband and allow your child to ride if appropriate.

What if my child is too small to ride?

Kids come in all sizes, just like our thrilling rides. Most rides have height requirements that all guests must meet in order to ride alone or, in some cases, to ride at all. To ensure the safety of our guests, Morey's Piers staff has been trained to strictly enforce all requirements, and will do so regardless of the situation. As such, there will be occasions when a child is on the borderline of meeting a requirement. To help ensure consistency, Morey's Piers has developed an Official Height Measurement Program, available at any Pier Guest Services. If your child is on the borderline of any height requirement, please come to Guest Services upon your arrival and ask to be officially measured. An Associate will measure your child on a hospital quality Stadiometer and issue a wristband noting his or her exact height. Your child will still be measured at every ride, but if there is a question concerning height, the Operator will check the wristband and allow your child to ride if appropriate. We also offer our Parent’s Limited Ride Pass which permits a single supervising companion to ride on select rides while accompanying a paying child who does not meet the height requirements. Look for a designated sticker on the ride's height sign or ask Guest Services.

Who is considered a supervising companion?

A person who is 14 years of age or older, is able to understand rider instructions, is able to assist a guest (under the minimum height to ride alone) in complying with rider instructions, and who meets all other criteria for riding alone.

Will I be able to ride by myself or with a large group on every ride?

Due to balancing and other requirements, some rides are unable to accommodate single riders, especially during very busy periods. In these situations, we will attempt to place single riders together in a timely fashion to avoid inconvenience. In addition, our Operations Associates may request that you or your group sit in certain seats, or with others not in your party, to satisfy operating requirements such as balancing.

Can I take pictures and video while on the rides?

For your safety and the safety of others, pictures and video taping or filming on rides is not permitted. However, we will permit these activities to be carried out by adults on the Giant Wheel, Sky Ships and Balloon Race, all of which are located on our Mariner's Pier.

Do parents need tickets or a wristband to ride with their children?

Yes. While admission to the Amusement Piers is free, every rider must have the appropriate value of tickets on a Wild Card or a valid wristband to ride. However, with our Parent’s Limited Ride Pass, a single supervising companion may ride on select rides while accompanying a paying child who does not meet the height requirements. Look for a designated sticker on the ride's height sign. These rides include the Carousel, Howitzer, Jump Around, Kiddie Train, Tiny Tea Party on Surfside Pier and Carousel, Convoy, Pink Elephants, Airplanes on Mariner's Pier.

Are there many rides for kids?

YES! We have over 60 rides (more than virtually any other amusement park), over 20 of which are for little kids!

Can your employees watch my stuff?

Water Parks

Can I bring a waterproof camera to the water parks?

Cameras may be used on waterslides, including gang slides and children’s slides provided that they are secured to the guest with a manufacturer supplied attachment device that safely secures the camera to the guest with a strap or similar mounting accessory.  The camera must be secured in a way that does not interfere with the guest being able to safely ride, or meet rider requirements.

3. The entire premises of Raging Waters and Ocean Oasis at times can be covered with water. Exercise extreme caution when walking from place to place. No running at any time! Obey Lifeguard and Staff instructions, and observe all instructional signs and recordings at all times. Failure to follow all rules, both written and verbal, can result in serious injury to yourself or others. Violation of rules will result in immediate ejection from park without refund.

5. Glass containers, alcoholic beverages, grills, pets, snorkels and diving equipment are not allowed.

What do we do in case of rain or severe weather?

The safety of our campers is of utmost importance to Morey’s Piers.  Please take a moment to read this section carefully, so you will have a complete understanding of what to do in case severe weather occurs during your event. Keep in mind that most events may still be underway even if conditions for camping are not ideal.

Prior to the start of the event: We suggest that you check our website prior to leaving home for the event. You can also call the weather hotline at 609.729.3700 ext. 1887 for weather updates.

In the event of light or sporadic rain, campers may set up camp on the beach, and the amusement rides and waterparks will open as long as conditions are safe.  If we experience heavy rain, the event may be temporarily postponed until the weather clears and rides may also temporarily close.  You may want to consider moving your tent to high ground on the beach (stay clear of areas where the water pools), or move your group to a local hotel (select a back-up hotel – or make a hotel reservation -- prior to arriving at Morey’s Piers, for a complete listing of motels in the Wildwoods, go towww.wildwoods.org).

If severe weather occurs, such as a thunderstorm, you may be asked to evacuate the beach and take shelter in your car.  If your car is within walking distance, calmly walk your entire group to the shelter of your vehicle(s).  Or, if your car is a far distance from the beach, pre-select one or more drivers to go and get your vehicles and pick up your group at the loading/unloading zone nearest to your camp site. Once you pick up your group, you must move your car to another location to wait out the storm.  Remain in your car until the severe weather passes.  Do not take shelter under the boardwalk.

Once the severe weather has passed, you may return to your tents on the beach. Please listen for any special announcements over the Morey’s Piers PA system, or from the Wildwood Police, as you return to your tents.

We look forward to talking to you, reaching our goals with fun, and having you as a team member! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
