Santa's tour took him to the 15th street lifeguard station and to his first stop at inlet beach. Santa stopped every two blocks to spread the magic of the holiday season. Santa's sleigh for the day just happened to be a Chevy Colorado.

A six-piece band playing holiday favorites in a pickup truck also added to the  Christmas in July celebration in North Wildwood. Beachgoers got in the holiday mood by decorating their spots in the sand on the beach.
