Ocean City New Jersey THE Family Beach Resort

Ocean City New Jersey, Perfect Family Vacation Spot

Ocean City New Jersey welcomes visitors with eight miles of some of the most beautiful waterfront in the country. This unique resort, visited year round by those in the know, is an ideal spot for a wonderful family beach vacation that will offer something fun and interesting for each and every member of the family.

Ocean City calls itself "America’s Greatest Family Resort" for a good reason. With a great boardwalk, wonderful dining experiences and a great shopping area full of fun and unique shops and boutiques, time away from the beach is almost as much fun as time at the beach.

Just drive over the bridge and you will feel as though you have entered a special world of relaxation, with fresh ocean breezes to cool your brow, soft sand to cuddle your toes and that special warmth only a day at a beautiful beach can bring. The ocean is not the only draw here, since the back bays views, with their beautiful marshes and vistas of pretty sailboats gliding over the clear waters soothe the eye and the soul.

Ocean City New Jersey has half a dozen or so lovely B&Bs or Inns, and sixteen hotels or motels to choose from. Many of these establishments wisely stay open all year long, since so many like to enjoy the beauty of Ocean City throughout the seasons.

Anyone who has visited these beaches in the early fall, when the water is still warm but the crowds are gone, will appreciate a town where the shops, restaurants and hotels are still open and as welcoming to visitors as ever! And, as in most great beach shore towns, individual owners rent out their homes or cottages to visiting vacationers.

Ocean City's fun boardwalk and its famous music pier draw crowds for old fashioned family fun. The Ocean City Pops, celebrating its 80th season, entertains with light classical, Broadway tunes, country, rock, children's concerts and top names such as Melissa Manchester or Chris Hillman of the Byrd's.

ABC's popular morning talk show The View, reported that Ocean City New Jersey was named the #1 Family Beach Resort in the COUNTRY! by Travel Channel. If you are looking for a fun, reasonably priced vacation that will have the whole family raving, set your sites for Ocean City, New Jersey.
