Ocean City is known as "America's Greatest Family Resort" as it caters to all members of your family. There are 8 miles of nice, clean, guarded beaches along the whole coast.

 Beach tags are required from June through Labor Day.

The boardwalk runs for 2.5 miles from the North end of the town to 23rd Street. During the summer you can ride a bicycle or surrey on the boardwalk between the hours of 5:00 - 12:00 AM. New Jersey law requires helmets to be worn by children under the age of 14 years. This law does NOT apply to riding on the boardwalk, however. Stores, eateries and amusements are dotted along this walk with a newly renovated area from 12th - 14th Street - including new restrooms for your comfort. The boardwalk has two amusement piers, a waterslide, theaters, lots of miniature golf courses, arcades, great pizza, frozen custard and ice cream, pretzels, popcorn and so much more even restaurants.  There is great clothes shopping on the boardwalk and other varied shops,  toy stores and jewelry stores!
