Wildwood (NASW) Aviation Museum
Though I didn’t go to this museum but it is a great family outing destination. You can climb a real
air traffic control tower, sit inside the cockpit of an aircraft, try the flight simulator games, and

Stay
There are lot of hotels and resorts available but are a little heavy on the pocket, so as always I will prefer the homely feeling and comfort of Airbnb. Salem is a good place to stay if you plan to cover Cape May and other popular tourist destinations in proximity to it.
