The increase in leisure time following WWII and the subsequent boom in the vacation industry created towns like Wildwood, which sprung up to house the newly idle sun-seekers. The 1950s architecture, left lovingly intact, includes dozens of gaudy but fun-looking hotels with names like Pink Orchid Waikiki and The Shalimar , all still featuring plastic palm trees, kidney-shaped swimming pools and plenty of aqua, orange and pink paint. To best appreciate the town's brash charm, take a stroll along the Boardwalk, and stop along the wide, if throbbing, beaches.
