Travel Itinerary: Beat the Heat in OCMD (Girls’ Trip)

Check In For Your Stay

Girls’ weekend is here! Upon first arriving in Ocean City, make your way to your accommodations to check in and get settled. Whether you’re staying Downtown, Midtown, or Uptown, you’re guaranteed to be close to so many great restaurants and activities. Here is our list of recommended spots, where you can browse by location to find the perfect place for your group!

Afternoon

After checking in, it’s time to jump right into the festivities. Spend your afternoon at Fish Tales for happy hour! Fish Tales is an incredibly popular spot thanks to their great waterfront ambiance, refreshing drinks, and delicious food. Enjoy an orange crush as you lounge with your toes in the sand in their outdoor dining area.

Want to spend the afternoon on the water? You can do that too! With boat rentals from Bahia Marina, you can spend the afternoon gliding along on the Assawoman Bay. In the mood for some adventure? Grab some jet skis from Odyssea Watersports! For the adventurous in the group, some parasailing with Sea Rocket is a great option.

Evening

Kick off the evening with a relaxing waterfront dinner at The Hideaway, one of Ocean City’s newest restaurants! The bayfront spot transports you to a secluded island with a delicious food and drink menu. Enjoy the view of palm trees swaying in the breeze as you dine at this brand new white tablecloth spot!

Another great option? Saltwater 75! This restaurant sits on the bay as well and has sunset views to brag about. Their full menu has something for everyone. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing evening meal before heading out for the night!

Nighttime

Nothing screams “classic Ocean City girls’ night” quite like a night out at Seacrets, Fager’s Island, and/or Macky’s! These three spots are your nighttime go-tos, especially if you’re in town for a bachelorette trip. Head to one or all three of them for a night of great music, dancing, and fun! 

Morning

Saturday morning, rise and shine and head to Ashore for their summer Beachfront Yoga Series! Each morning in the summer, the resort offers yoga at 8am. It’s the perfect activity to kick off your day of fun in OC.

After yoga, head downtown to Flamingo Coast, another one of OC’s newest spots! This unique boardwalk restaurant offers delicious breakfast and coffee options. The decor is cute too, making it a great place to grab a bite and enjoy some much needed AC!

Midday

You can’t spend a weekend in Ocean City without some beach time. After grabbing breakfast, head right across the boardwalk to get your spot on the sand! You’re sure to enjoy our pristine beaches no matter where you’re catching rays throughout town. Explore OC’s different districts and find your perfect beach spot here!

Afternoon

Once the sun starts hitting its peak, it’s time to cool off again. You have a couple of options! Enjoy a peaceful afternoon with a trip to Creative Day Spa, where you can get a massage, facial, or even a mani/pedi! 

If you want to stay outdoors, a sail with Sail Alyosha is the perfect way to take advantage of some relaxing on the water. See Ocean City beaches from the other side as you sail up the coast and back again on their 50’ catamaran. It’s always a bonus when a pod of dolphins swim by!

Evening

By the time you step out of the spa or off the boat, it’ll be time to head to dinner! Your Saturday meal can look however you’d like. Want a nice rooftop experience? Head to The Embers. Their menu features all of the seafood you could hope for, along with delicious boards, brick oven pizza, steaks, and more. Their drink menu is great too, and they’re home to an espresso martini flight!

Another option? Sushi! OC Wasabi is a great place to enjoy a sushi boat for the table and a few rounds of sake. They’re an Ocean City favorite for a reason!

Nighttime

Ready for another night out? This time, hit a downtown trifecta with visits to the Treehouse Bar, M.R. Ducks, The Bearded Clam! The Treehouse Bar is a super unique spot in OC. Low lighting, tree decor, and a hanging swing make you feel like you’re inside a treehouse! M.R. Ducks sits on the water at Talbot Street and is home to the chug-a-duck! Finally, The Bearded Clam is an OC staple that’s a must-visit during any night out downtown.

Morning

Kick off your final day in town with breakfast at Ocean 13. This spot offers unique breakfast boards that are absolutely perfect for sharing! They’re photo worthy too, which is always a plus. In addition to boards, they also offer breakfast options like Banana Brulee French Toast Bread Pudding, Crabby Bagels, and so much more.

Midmorning

Once you’re fueled up and ready for the day, head to T.C. Studios Arts & Entertainment for a girls’ painting activity! Their step-by-step painting is the perfect way to make your very own souvenirs. Perfect for groups, T.C. operates by appointment only. Reach out to them for details!

After painting wraps up, hit some of OC’s local shops with visits to stores like InnerBloom, K-Coast Surf Shop, and South Moon Under.

Midday

Close out your trip to Ocean City with one last meal, this time at Longboard Cafe. Located midtown at 67th Street, Longboard is a favorite thanks to their wide menu. They have delicious seafood, of course, but also yummy tacos, salads, and so much more!
