If you're looking for a beach where your kids can build sandcastles without accidentally using a…read morebeer can as a shovel--Ocean City, NJ is your spot. This place is squeaky clean, super safe, and delightfully dry (as in, no alcohol allowed on the beach) The boardwalk has everything a family could want: pizza slices bigger than your head, fudge that defies logic, mini golf courses every 15 feet, and rides that are reasonably priced. There's no bar crawl vibe here--more like stroller parades, ice cream drips, and kids riding bikes 10/10, would sunscreen my kids here again.

THE GOOD ----------------…read more+ Oddly, there was no beach badge fee on the Thursday leading up to Labor Day weekend, but it's advertised online as $10 daily. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Beaches are scattered along the boardwalk and kind of broken up into sections. - Wasn't as clean as we expected. - Sand had lots of shells and remnants from the ocean. - The north side of the beach wasn't huge. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = For you shell collectors out there, along the coastline where the beach and ocean currents meet, there was a craaaazy amount of shells of all shapes and sizes!

It is geared for families. Most homes are very large with porches. The Boardwalk can be bustling during the tourist season. With lots of activity for young and old alike. My husband and I were here in July several years ago for our Honeymoon. We enjoyed the warm weather and waited in the warm Atlantic Ocean. Now we are here in November ( although it is off season) It is still very beautiful and pristine. This is a dry island (which means alcohol is not sold here )even in restaurants that have bars. My husband and his family have been coming to OC for generations and I understand why it really is beautiful!!

The two main issues are that number one it really doesn't have a whole lot for older kids to do as a large portion of the play items are for the maybe say seven and under crowd. Number two issue would that while I'm sure this park is a ghost town in the off season, in season it's simply too small for the number of kids/parents who are here everyday from a very early hour to a very late hour. The good stuff would be that the park has a bathroom, if you're into tennis the courts are mostly deserted, the basketball courts are in good shape even though they always were crowded and if you need something while your there you've got either Hoy's, Blitz's, The Scoop Box or the 34th Street Farm and Garden Center all right across the street. Don't get me wrong in that it's great that this place exists versus another block of condo rentals it's just that while it's nice, it just wasn't nearly as nice as the pictures online made it seem nor did it offer as much to do as I imagined. Lesson learned.
