Downtown Ocean City

City centre Ocean City buzzes with classic beach holiday energy right on the Atlantic. The iconic boardwalk stretches along the beachfront with vintage amusement rides, carnival games, and a famous Ferris wheel. Beach lovers can lounge on the sand, visit Trimper's Rides, or try their luck at Ripley's Believe It or Not. The fishing pier extends into the ocean while beachfront bars pulse with live music. High-rise oceanfront hotels dominate the skyline, offering pools and easy beach access. Boardwalk staples like saltwater taffy and funnel cakes satisfy sweet cravings, while seafood restaurants range from casual to upscale. The area is extremely walkable, with a seasonal trolley running along Coastal Highway for longer trips.

Jolly Roger Amusement Park which includes night scenes and rides

Midtown Ocean City

Midtown Ocean City dazzles with beachfront energy and direct fun right on the Atlantic. Families splash in ocean waves by day and hit the arcades and mini-golf courses when the sun dips. The Jolly Roger Amusement Park lights up the skyline while the Roland E. Powell Convention Centre hosts year-round events just steps from the sand. Hotels and holiday condos line Coastal Highway, offering easy beach access for sun-seekers. Seafood restaurants and boardwalk treats keep everyone fuelled between adventures. Most visitors drive, though the area is walkable enough for short trips between your hotel, the beach, and those must-try crab cake spots.

North Ocean City which includes a beach, general coastal views and swimming

North Ocean City

North Ocean City offers miles of pristine Atlantic coastline where beachfront resorts line the sandy shores. Families flock to mini-golf courses, water parks, and ice cream shops during summer months. The area combines oceanfront relaxation with lively entertainment options like Carousel Ice Skating Rink and Northside Park. Seafood restaurants and beach-themed shops create a classic holiday atmosphere throughout the area. Most visitors rely on cars or take advantage of the walkable coastal strip with bike rentals widely available. High-rise hotels and condominium resorts provide comfortable accommodation with ocean views and easy beach access.

City by the bay

Sunset Island

Sunset Island delivers the beach holiday upgrade you didn't know you needed. This exclusive 37-acre island community sits right on Ocean City's bay, offering private beaches and pools that make public beaches seem like a distant memory. The clubhouse, tennis centre, and manicured grounds create a resort feel without the resort crowds. Take a short walk to reach the Atlantic Ocean beaches or stay put and enjoy the calm bay waters. Holiday rentals here come fully loaded with luxury touches and full kitchens for when you don't feel like driving to Ocean City's restaurants. Getting around the island is easy on foot, but you'll need a car to explore beyond the gates. The peaceful, upscale atmosphere makes this spot perfect for travellers seeking a premium beach experience.

Assateague Island Wild Ponies on the Beach

Montego Bay

Ocean City's Montego Bay offers a double dose of watery fun with the Atlantic Ocean on one side and Assawoman Bay on the other. Northside Park gives you green space when you need a break from the sand, while mini-golf courses and boardwalk attractions keep the entertainment flowing. The area pulses with classic coastal energy – think beachfront resorts and colourful amusement options. Seafood dominates the restaurant scene with fresh catch specials that'll make your taste buds do a happy dance. Most visitors stay in oceanview condos or resort-style accommodation that put you steps from the water. Getting around is easiest by car, though bike rentals are perfect for cruising the boardwalk areas.

Ocean City and related destinations

A wooden boardwalk stretches three miles along the Atlantic, where saltwater taffy shops compete with arcade bells and the screams from Trimper's Rides. Sink toes into ten miles of sandy beach or try catching dinner from the fishing pier. The Roland E. Powell Convention Centre hosts events year-round, while Sunfest and Springfest transform shoulder seasons into celebrations. Northside Park offers quieter pleasures away from the neon and noise. After sunset, the boardwalk transforms as families with ice cream cones give way to teenagers experiencing freedom by the glow of amusement rides. Don't miss watching the bay sunset - a simple pleasure that outshines even the flashiest attractions.
