One of The Most Exciting Boardwalks in America!

The Travel Channel called our classic wooden boardwalk America's best. National Geographic named it one of the top 10 in the U.S. And USA Today named it one of the nation's best boardwalks for food. In short, it's three miles of highly concentrated fun - and one more reason to vacation in OCMD.

Day or night, there's always something happening - and quite often, it's free.

Amusements and arcades are fun for children of all ages. Catch a spectacular view from the tops of one of our ferris wheels. Scream with delight on our roller coaster or savor the slower pace of our magnificent 1902 carousel. Oh, and don't forget to stop by one of our many arcades and play to win!

Hungry? You won't be for long. Choose from famous Maryland crab cakes or delightful Delmarva fried chicken. Tear into a delicious cheeseburger or savor a smoky pit beef. Enjoy fresh-baked pizza or our famous french fries - with Ocean City dining, the menu is almost endless.

And that's before you get to dessert. There's luscious saltwater taffy, sweet caramel popcorn, thick creamy fudge, rich ice cream, fresh, hot funnel cakes, cotton candy and chocolate-covered strawberries.

After a boardwalk meal, you'll be ready to shop - and you'll find plenty of opportunities, along the boardwalk and on many side streets as well.

Up for some heroics? Relive the adventures of the U.S. Life-Saving Service, a predecessor of today's Coast Guard, at the meticulously restored Ocean City Life-Saving Station Museum. Children love the Aquarium Room, featuring large saltwater tanks with amazing sea creatures.

At night, the boardwalk fills with music and fun. During the summer, you'll find free family activities on the beach along the boardwalk!

Plus, we make it easy to stay in the mix. OC offers a huge selection of hotel, motel and condominium boardwalk accommodations, with room types and amenities perfect for any group or family. Enjoy award-winning boardwalk attractions right at your door, the beach just a few steps away, and an amazing ocean view that starts every day with a good mood.

And that's just the beginning. Experience one of America's best boardwalks for yourself.
