Travel Itinerary: The Perfect Valentine’s Day Weekend in OC

Check In for Your Stay

When you first arrive into town, check into your hotel to drop off your bags and take a quick breather. Any location Downtown, Midtown, or Uptown is sure to be a great choice. Find the perfect accommodations on our website!

Afternoon

Get your trip started with some shopping around Ocean City! Checking out local stores like Quiet Storm, MR Ducks Apparel, and Kite Loft is a great way to explore locally owned small businesses and see a bit of the town. Of course, Park Place Jewelers in West O is a must-visit too, because what better time to find the perfect piece of jewelry than Valentine’s Day weekend?

Evening

Once you’ve nearly shopped ‘til you’ve dropped, drop off your bags at the hotel and then head back out for a delicious dinner! With a more romantic meal planned for Saturday evening, Friday evening’s dinner is about having some fun. Try Alley Oops for some friendly competition in between courses, or Blue Fish for all of the sushi your heart desires!

Morning

Start your day with a delicious breakfast from Bai-Tee Bakery. You can opt for grab-and-go, or sit down for a relaxed visit! After you’re fueled up and ready for the day, head down to the sand for a winter oceanside stroll. You can also walk along the boardwalk, aiming to “touch the spot” at either end of the walk! The entire boardwalk is about 2.5 miles.

Midday

Hungry? Head to lunch at one of the many restaurants around town! Some great options include Longboard Cafe, 28th Street Pit n Pub, and Shotti’s Point.

Afternoon

A massage is the perfect way to spend the afternoon of Valentine’s Day! Head to the Creative Day Spa located in the Princess Royale hotel for the ultimate princess treatment. They offer massages, facials, manicures, and more!
