Latest posts by Christine Lindstrom (see all)

Ocean City, New Jersey is one of the premier destinations for a beach vacation at the Jersey shore.

In addition to miles and miles of beautiful sand beaches, Ocean City also has a 2.5-mile boardwalk full of souvenir shops, restaurants, and entertainment such as amusements, concerts, arcades, miniature golf, and more.

Downtown, the city of Ocean City offers many points of interest and rainy-day activities for the whole family. It is also a short drive to other nearby shore points where visitors can enjoy many unique tourist attractions.

The barrier island of Ocean City is lined with 8 miles of sandy beaches. There are multiple access points off of Wesley Avenue, which is the main road that runs closest to the coast. Lifeguards are on duty throughout the summer season at regular intervals.

There are also 11 different locations that have lifeguards on duty during the shoulder seasons. The stretch of beach between 6th Street and 14th Street also has Ocean City’s 2.5-mile boardwalk, making this northern end of the beach much more popular with beachgoers.

Peck Beach is a part of Ocean City Beach that is distinctive for its size. The beach is approximately 100 yards wide in this section, and it is guarded during the summer season.

This stretch of beach is more than 10 blocks south of the end of the boardwalk, so it is often more peaceful and less crowded than other Ocean City beaches. It is an easy walk from North Street Park. Note that finding parking for Peck Beach can be a challenge.

Surf Road Beach is Ocean City’s best beach for accessibility. Ramps over the dunes help people with mobility challenges get across the sand. The ramps lead to within 100 feet of the waterline (depending on tides) which gives improved access not only to the beach but also to the ocean itself.

This is a smaller patch of beach located on the northern end of the island, away from the bustle of the boardwalk and many of Ocean City’s main tourist attractions. Lifeguards on duty during the peak season.

Best Way to Spend a Day in Ocean City, New Jersey

A perfect day in Ocean City would start with a quiet walk on the beach before it gets crowded. Then I would take the kids to a local park – perhaps Sandcastle Park to enjoy their incredible playgrounds or Lake Memorial Park to go for a story walk. When it’s time for lunch, I would pack a picnic and head to the beach for the afternoon.

I would choose a spot on the Ocean City beach near the north end of the boardwalk, where there is easy access to public parking and plenty to do on the boardwalk.

After a few hours of sand and waves, I would take the family up onto the boardwalk for a few amusements at Gillian’s Wonderland Pier. Dinner would be pizza on the boardwalk, then I’d head to the Crook Horn Creek Nature Trail for an evening walk and to watch the sunset over the bay.
