LOCAL ATTRACTIONS

ABOUT OCEAN CITY, NJ

Ocean City is an ideal getaway for families. Local attractions, like the beach and boardwalk, have something for everyone--from toddlers to grandparents! 

 

NOTE ABOUT OCEAN CITY & ALCOHOL 

Ocean City is known as a “dry town,” which means that alcohol isn’t sold within city boundaries and restaurants in the city don’t serve it--including BYOB. However, this doesn't mean alcohol consumption is prohibited! You are welcome to bring and enjoy alcoholic beverages within your home.

 

There are a number of lovely bars and restaurants just over the bridges in Somers Point and Marmora that serve alcohol. Taxis, Uber, and Lyft are available to get you there and home safely.

BEACH & BOARDWALK

The beach in Ocean City is like no other. 8 miles of beaches and the famous boardwalk are a short walk from Beachview Properties. With each rental, 4 beach tags are included. While children do not need beach tags, adults must have them while on the beach. Ocean City staffs lifeguards at certain locations during the day. Bikes are allowed on the boardwalk until noon each day and can be used on the many bikes lanes throughout the city all day. 

 

Please feel free to bring your own beach chairs, which can be stored on the hooks hanging from the fence. Bikes can be stored at the back or sides of the house. 

 

There's no shortage of entertainment and activities for the whole family in and around Ocean City, NJ.  Be sure to check out the official Ocean City, NJ calendar of events when planning your visit!
