After a six-week delay, a redeveloped boardwalk pier in North Wildwood that includes a membership pool, two bar/restaurants and a deck for outdoor entertainment will open on Friday, its developer announced.

"We are happy to announce that we will be opening our doors on Friday, July 6th to the public," the developer of Seaport Pier says on its Facebook page. "We will be operating on a limited basis from food to beverages and everything in between. We appreciate your patience as this project nears completion."

Developers had originally scheduled a Memorial Day weekend opening, but that was postponed due to weather and other delays.

A spokeswoman for Seaport Pier, Amy Schnauffer, said finishing touches are still being applied to the kitchens of the two restaurants, the Sand Bar and the deep sea-themed Dive Bar, so they will offer limited dining options for the time being.

But the bars will be fully operations, and the membership pool and cabana complex, known as the Starboard Swim Club, will be open to those seeking to sign up, sun themselves and take a dip.

Prices start at $499 for a single membership. A family membership -- two adults and two kids under 20 -- will cost $1,200.

The Seaport Pier site, located between the boardwalk and the beach at 22nd Street, had hosted a handful of retail shops that were condemned and demolished a decade ago, and the site had remained vacant since then, according to North Wildwood Mayor Patrick Rosenello.

Rosenello welcomed the pier as a higher-end attraction than the cluster of shops it replaces, in keeping with the Cape May County seaside resort's effort to court a higher-spending clientele.
