America's Greatest Family Resort? Well, it's a nice place to visit
anyway. Ocean City is definitely a Family Resort, it's not the place to stay if
you're a person looking for a wild time or to hang out in a bar. Ocean City's law
prohibiting the sale of alcohol makes it a hit with younger families. It is a
clean, safe town, with a varied assortment of activities and a long, beautiful beach for
relaxing. Although it is a resort town, the locals host some activities in the off-season,
giving the place a sense of life missing in some of the other barrier islands.
The only element missing from Ocean City is a nightlife. Aside from the
walking boards, there is little to do in the evenings. However, Somers Point and AC are
within minutes of the small town, providing an older crowd with more options. Take a look
around and see what OC has for you . . .
