welcome to

Ocean City new jersey

This is the land of surf and sand.

A

RE you ready for life at sea level? A vacation in Ocean City gives you access to some of the best sand and surf in the whole world right along the edge of New Jersey. But the best part of this island is that it's so much more. It's watching the sunset from your rooftop deck, it's taking in a Pops orchestra concert at the Music Pier, it's whooshing down a track as you look at the giant smile on your child's face. This, all of this and so much more, is life at sea level. Ocean City brings big city culture to the beach with its Community Center - a housing of music, art, and dance, books, learning, exercise, history and more. There are classes, tours, museums, boutique shops, tasty eateries, imaginative sweet shops, and all the sports and outdoor activities you could ask for. Life at sea level is flat out fabulous. See you in OC!

All about OC

Getting here is almost as easy as lying on our beaches.

B

ECAUSE of its close proximity to three major US cities (Philadelphia, New York, and Washington DC), Ocean City is easily accessible by car, train, plane, and bus. Getting here is as simple as plugging your favorite OC address into Google Maps and following the instructions as you drive until the salt air hits you. There are ways to enter our eight-mile island on all four sides (you can arrive on the ocean side by kayak or boat, of course!) Four bridges help visitors find their happy place - the Ocean City Longport Bridge leading to Longport and Somers Point via Wesley Avenue; The 9th Street bridge leading to and from Somers Point; the 34th Street Bridge connecting Marmora and Upper Township, and the Rush Chattin bridge leading into Strathmere.

8

Be your own navigator.

W

HEN you are on vacay (or planning your vacay), it’s nice to know that someone or something (like this book!) is here to help you become an expert navigator of your own. There are so many wonderful things about Ocean City, NJ, from our weather (temperate) to our beaches (clean and soft). Now speaking of weather... OC’s surrounded by water (you knew that!) and thanks to that lovely big beautiful ocean our air temperature doesn’t get too hot or too cold. Hello winter getaway! If you’re planning a trip and aren’t sure what to pack, a quick glance at your fave weather app and you might be thinking you’re good to go. But it’s always a good idea to throw in a pair of shorts (if you’re planning a fall or winter trip) or a sweatshirt or light sweater in summer. Forgot to do that? Lucky for you there are plenty of fab shops waiting with options. Once you’ve arrived, let us help you get around.

A stop at one of the Ocean City Welcome Centers gets you all the info you’ll need for your stay – things to do, places to eat, shop, be merry... Roy Gillian Welcome Center - 9th Street Bridge 34th Street Welcome Center - Acme parking lot on 34th Street Music Pier Welcome Center - Moorlyn Terrace and Boardwalk City Hall Welcome Center - 9th and Asbury Being a good navigator also means knowing what’s allowed and not allowed, where to park, take your doggie, etc. It also helps you get into vacay mode much faster. Here is a cheat sheet for your vacation. Parking Meters run from May 1 to October 31 and many now take credit cards. There are parking lots dotted throughout the island as well. City-operated lots are on 5th, 8th, 9th, and 14th Streets and on Moorlyn Terrace. The further toward the bay you park, the better chance of it being

meter free. The best idea? Leave your car at your bed and breakfast, hotel, motel or rental home and walk or bike the island. Bicycling A bike path runs through the center of town on Haven Avenue between 9th and 34th Streets. The Boardwalk allows bikes from 5am to Noon in the summer season and all day during the off-season. Additional shared-use bike lanes and bike-friendly roads run throughout town. Helmets are required in New Jersey for all riders under 17 and recommended for everyone. Bicyclists should ride with traffic and obey all posted signs and signals. Ocean City has many bicycle and surrey rental companies. Visit www.bikeocnj.org to learn more. Fur Babies Leashed dogs are allowed on the beach October 1 to April 30. Guide dogs are allowed on the beach at any time. In the south end of the island you’ll find the Ocean City Dog Park at 45th Street & Haven Avenue. The park is open dawn to dusk with a Paw Pass required for entry. Visit the dog park website, oceancitydogpark.org for more info. Recycling Please drop your trash in a proper receptacle. Ocean City recycles plastic, glass, aluminum and paper. These items should be separated from regular trash. Emergencies Call 911 to summon police, fire or rescue by phone. Tune your radio to 1620 AM for updates from Ocean City’s Office of Emergency Management during any public emergency, including severe weather. To contact Ocean City Police for a non-emergency, call 609-399-9111.

The beach is calling.

W

HETHER you live ten minutes or ten hours away, the Ocean City beach calls you like a siren song, nearly all year round... perhaps it says... come feel the sand between your toes, let the warmth of the sun relax and take you to your happy place. There are eight miles of silky sand lining the island of Ocean City. These are world class beaches, and they are calling you. Depending on where you choose to place your chair or blanket, the beach is wide or short, populated or not. But each beach brings the dancing plovers who play in the surf, the warm salt air breezes, and the relaxation. Will you answer the beach’s call?

14

Exploring the neighborhoods.

V

ISITORS who come to the island for its beach are sometimes pleasantly surprised to find that Ocean City has vibrant communities from beach to bay, north to south. Each neighborhood has charm and personality, and each is waiting to be discovered by you. Perhaps you already know some of them... North End (also known as the Gardens), South End, Bay and Marina District, Downtown Asbury Avenue, and The Boardwalk. All of these locations have places for you to stay, restaurants for dining, shops for shopping, and are easily accessible by bike, car and foot. What will you discover when you explore?

18


North End This tip of OC is referred to as The Gardens and has lovely homes, big beaches, and, well, gardens! South End Home to the scenic beauty of Corson's Inlet State Park, bustling businesses, beautiful homes, and big beaches. Downtown Asbury Avenue The heart of Ocean City lies in this one mile stretch of Asbury Avenue. You’ll find boutiques, eateries, sweet shops, salons, a park, City Hall, and much more here. Bay and Marina District The first thing you see as you enter OC from the 9th Street Bridge, the boat lined district is where you’ll find watersports, fishing, the OC Yacht Club, and a few eateries/sweet shops. The Boardwalk This 2.5 mile stretch from St. James Place to 23rd Street is home to tons of fun, food, and fabulous shopping. It’s also perfect for exercising and people watching. 19


OC brings the fun.

T

HERE are so many ways to have fun while you’re vacationing... maybe your fun is spending the day on the beach with a good book, or maybe it's riding a wave runner through OC’s Rainbow Channel. Or perhaps you’re smiling when you’re riding a log flume through the salt air. No matter how you play, OC’s got game. We have arcades, mini golf courses, parasailing, boats, fishing cruises, go-karts, two awesome amusement parks, metal detectors, surf lessons, rock walls, parades, water slides, surreys, airplane rides, theater productions, laser tag, an escape room, a golf course, sports courts, family-friendly events... and if you can believe it... tons more fun!

It's time to make a splash.

I

T’S no surprise that Ocean City is completely surrounded by water. It’s an island after all, and one that has all the amenities you can ask for. With the Atlantic on the east coast... the intracoastal waterway on the west and inlets on the north and south, OC is the perfect place to boat (or charter a boat), fish, kayak, jet ski, wave run, water ski, surf, sail and parasail. And let’s not forget swim! In summer, there’s no better escape from the heat than a quick splash into the water... Grab that giant flamingo float and head into the lagoon for a rockin respite from the everyday. Today is the day to try something new... Leave your comfort zone behind and take hold of a water ski line instead. Or take that surfing lesson you’ve been wanting to try... The water is waiting.

26


27


Sailing Lessons are offered at the Ocean City Yacht Club (members only) and through the Ocean City Sailing Foundation, ocsailingfoundation.org. Surfing Surfing is allowed on all beaches while lifeguards are off duty. Three guarded beaches are designated as surfing beaches: Waverly Boulevard, 7th Street, and 16th Street. OC is one of the most popular surfing spots on the east coast and has a rich surfing history. Local surf shops have wave reports, board rentals and lessons. Boat Launches Public access boat ramps are at Tennessee Avenue and Corson’s Inlet State Park. At Tennessee Avenue there are supplies, bait, ice, refreshments. The ramp is open April 1-September 30. For launch fees and more, call 609-525-9289. At Corson’s, the ramp is open year round. Call 609-861-2404 for more information. 28

Fishing From surf fishing, to bridge fishing and everything in between, OC has something for anglers of any type. On a fishing trip you could land bluefish, flounder, tautog (blackfish), kingfish, shark, striped bass (rockfish), and sea bass. There’s also tuna, mahi (dorado) blue and white marlin, wahoo, and more. To learn whats biting, and which bait you’ll need to reel 'em in, ask your local tackle shop or anyone at the dock. There is no license needed to fish the saltwater around OC, but anglers must register (for free) with NJ Saltwater Recreational Registration Program at nj.gov/dep/saltwaterregistry. At nj.gov/dep you can also find minimums, tips, and more. Licenses are required to harvest clams and other shellfish. Surf fishing is allowed in Ocean City on unguarded beaches and in Corson’s Inlet State Park.

Enjoy the island's outdoor lifestyle.

W

HEN you have some of the best beaches in the world, a fabulous stretch of boardwalk running parallel to the mighty ocean and a recreation program second to none, you're bound to be known as an outdoor paradise. And that's exactly what Ocean City is. From summer to winter, there's always a reason to be outside. Join a pick up game, grab your board and chase the stoke, swish down a slide at rapid speed, or simply sit on your deck and sip your fresh brewed coffee as you people watch. Explore the wildlife that calls the island home - fox, whales, sand plovers, starfish... See how many you can spot. Do you know what they call a seagull who lives near the bay? A bay-gull (bagel)! See how many bagels (er, seagulls) you can find on a visit to the Stainton's Wildlife Refuge. With sport courts and playgrounds a plenty, the island is perfect for all ages to get fresh air and fun all in one.

32


Natural Beauty Stainton's Wildlife Refuge Located on Bay Avenue between 23rd and 30th Streets is 16 acres of protected dune and marsh - a cool escape from the bustle of the island. Beach Walks Offered in July and August, these guided beach tours are a perfect way to get acquainted with the eco system that thrives by the shore. Why does a horseshoe crab have so many legs? How do shells form? Why can't I stop asking questions? These might be a few of the questions you'll ask during the tour... It's offered in the south and north end of the islands on Tuesday and Wednesday. See the Events Calendar for more info. Corson's Inlet State Park Imagine yourself a Lenni-Lenape, walking through the terrain as you listen to the loudening roar of the surf call you closer with each step through hilly dunes and phragmites,

until at last, you come out of the brush and are faced with your prize... The amazing Atlantic. Though we may not be trailblazers like the Native Americans, it certainly feels like you're an intrepid explorer finding your way to water when you leave your car behind and start out through the trails at the southern tip of Ocean City, in Corson's Inlet State Park. The Bayside Center Sitting in a home once owned by the Diesel family (of diesel fuel fame), the Bayside Center is an unassuming building that houses amazing stuff inside. All summer long, the BC is home to science camps that would have intrigued Marie Curie herself. Okay, perhaps we're reaching, but judging by how fast these camps fill up, the folks at the Center are doing something right. The BC is also a popular viewing spot for Night in Venice and has a lifeguard museum, ship models and live sea creatures. 609-525-9244 summer; 609-5259301 winter. 33


Good Sport Golf You don't have to be Phil Mickelson or Carl Spackler to enjoy the golf in and around Ocean City. Our area courses offer challenge and scenic beauty. Don't want to leave the island? We have our own municipal golf course right along Bay Avenue next to the airport.

They have strength and cardiovascular equipment training space, an exercise studio for aerobics, yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi and martial arts, indoor cycling, surfset fitness, personal training, racquetball court, child care, and youth programming spaces.

Explore our area.

F

ROM the frenetic buzz of the casinos, to the serenity of the Savannah, our surrounding area will keep you entertained, cultured, and smart. In just a short drive from the island, you can put yourself face to face with a lion, tiger, and bear. Oh my! The Cape May County Zoo is a splendid park with playground, shops, rides, and of course, an easily walkable zoo. And it's all just about 20 minutes south. Head in the other direction, and you'll be treated to a skyline filled with casinos that are hopping on the inside (on a clear day, this gorgeous view can be seen from the island's north end beaches too). A little further north at the tip of Atlantic City is the AC Aquarium, a little gem of a spot perfect for any age for a few hours, or an entire day. A quick drive west and you'll see the red and white pillars of a castle - it's Storybook Land! Enter a fairy tale setting and enjoy rides, gardens, refreshments and more. Or take an afternoon and enjoy the charm of Historic Smithville, a charming village of shops, restaurants, and activities. As you can probably tell, we have a lot of fun going on both on and off island. There are lighthouses, museums, historical buildings and more just waiting to be discovered by you.

Take in some arts and culture.

S

OME people use a vacation to clear their mind, to escape thought. Others use it as a chance to soak in a culture that's different than what they're used to. If you're one of the latter, or are simply open to an enriching experience, you've come to the right island. OC is brimming with things to do that have an artistic and cultural spin. There are art-inspired events, such as the Boardwalk Art Show in August and fun theatrical productions by the Ocean City Theatre Co. and the OC Pops. Ocean City is home to numerous cultural organizations like the Arts Center, Free Public Library, Fine Arts League, and Historical Museum. In addition there are many shops/studios that offer drop in art classes and workshops. You can play all morning in the sun and surf, and take in a family friendly show before you stroll the Boardwalk. Or take a pottery lesson before you meet your friends to shop Downtown. Life at sea level in OC is what you make of it. The choices are endless.

Stay a while.

MAGINE waking up and walking out on your veranda to see dolphins playing in the sea, their shiny bodies popping in and out of the water in groups of two or three. This is waking up in Ocean City. It's jogging on the Boardwalk as the sun peaks out from the horizon. It's smelling the salt air as you make (or buy) your coffee. It's not missing a second of the day at sea level. It's having fun all day, resting your head in any one of a variety of accommodations offered here. When you spend the night, the week, or the summer in Ocean City, you know you're getting treated well, whether that's in a cozy bed and breakfast room or in the penthouse suite high above the ground for unbeatable panoramic views from bay to ocean. Our hotel, motel, bed and breakfasts, guest homes, apartments, and campgrounds offer a range of amenities to make you feel at home.

Let's grab a bite.

HAT are you in the mood to eat today? Greek? Mexican? How about a good old-fashioned American burger and fries. Only these aren't your typical fries. These are the best little carbs you've ever had. OC has been serving customers for over 100 years, so sit back, and enjoy the food ride. Whether you're up on the Boardwalk or Downtown you'll find a wide range of cuisines produced by restaurants at the top of their game. In the mood for Hawaiian? We have two spots for that. How about Caribbean style? Yep. From breakfast to dessert (taffy, ice cream, froyo, caramel corn, macaroons, so much more) and every snack in between, you'll find restaurants, shacks, togo counters, and more for everyone in your family. Our restaurants vary from casual (no shirt, no shoes, no problem) to fine dining (white tablecloths) so no matter what you fancy on a particular day, there's an eatery for that.

80


Boardwalk The Boardwalk has many delicious eateries and sweet shops. The scent of the meals or desserts being prepared is enough to wake you out of a deep beach slumber. Choices range from fresh-pulled taffy to organic smoothies to fish tacos. Go healthy or splurge, the choice is yours. Downtown The mile-long stretch from 6th to 14th Street on Asbury is home to a bustling shopping district. Lined among the shops are fab options for your inner foodie. Fresh salads, pizza, inspired Greek cuisine, hand crafted chocolates, Hawaiian, Vietnamese, contemporary

Fresh Market Blue Claws Lobster Tails

coastal cuisine and many other options. Are you hungry yet? Throughout the Island Isn't it awesome when you're out and about and you stumble on a new restaurant or sweet spot? Throughout the island you'll find spots dotted around, such as the bay and marina district near Bay Avenue and 3rd Street or 55th Street, or 34th Street. If you're staying nearby, walk on over and perhaps you'll find your new favorite sub/lunch/bagel/ice cream place. And when you do, order a triple scoop of butter pecan for us. Vacation calories don't count.

It's time to shop.

HERE are few feelings that compare to strolling the aisles of your favorite (or soon-to-be favorite) shop and coming up on an item that you must have. It's true... Retail therapy has power to bring happiness. Now you might be thinking that all you'll find are tees and flip flops (and of course, we have cool options in those), but a quick stroll around town and you'll be treated to gorgeous handcrafted jewelry, frothy handmade soaps, top-of-the-line surf and skateboards, beautiful clothing for all seasons, bestselling books, and trendy home goods worthy of big city shops. The island has shops throughout its eight miles. Downtown from 6th to 14th Street on Asbury and its side streets are filled with boutiques. The Boardwalk from St. James Place to 14th Street is an open air shopping experience with apparel, home goods, surf gear, and more. The bayfront, north end and south end have lovely shops too... Take a stroll around to see what shopping gems you can find!

The time to rent or buy is now.

PENDING a day or a week in Ocean City is pretty amazing. And purchasing a home here? Sublime. Investing in yourself, be it a second home, a relocation to the beach, or a week or two summer vacation in a bayfront rental improves your quality of life. Ocean City is a world-class destination. We have it all. Big city shopping, small town charm, soft beaches, restaurants that offer global cuisines, and so much more. This doesn't have to be your "sometime" getaway. This can be your home or your home away from home for a week or a lifetime. Imagine watching the Christmas parade then shopping with friends afterward, or jogging the Boardwalk in the morning and seeing familiar faces. A long term stay in OC is as splendid as the sunrise over the Atlantic. This is your time to live your dream of owning or renting a beach home.

Hear the stories of the past.

CEAN City’s history is a tale of whale hunters, ship wrecks, and desire for a Christian retreat. Years before the first European settlers dubbed it “Peck’s Beach,” the island was a summer fishing camp for native Lenni-Lenape people and also served as a grazing land for cattle driven from the mainland. The barrier island of dunes, meadows, beach and cedar swamps took its first name from John Peck, who used the island as a staging area for his shore-based whaling operation. Original ownership of the land is traced to the family of Richard Somers, one of America’s first naval heroes. Only an intrepid few made their homes here, as getting on and off the island was exclusively by water. The seeds of a future city were sown in 1879, when four Methodist ministers saw in Peck’s Beach the ideal place to establish a Christian

122


retreat and camp meeting. Ezra B. Lake, James Lake, S. Wesley Lake and William Burrell coined the name “Ocean City,” laid out a street grid, built utilities and sold lots for cottages, hotels and businesses. The first building of what would become the Tabernacle was finished in 1881, along with the island’s first school. The first bridge went up in 1883 and the railroad soon followed, bringing both the devout in search of religious retreat and vacationers seeking solace from the noise of the city. Since those early days, Ocean City has transformed itself into “America’s Greatest Family Resort,” a top-rated vacation

destination. The Tabernacle is still a dynamic place for praise and worship. The legacy of the founders also remains in the absence of liquor sales within the city limits. Its status as a “dry” town is one important reason Ocean City has become a family favorite. To learn more, visit the Historical Museum at 17th Street & Simpson Ave. OC’s timeline is cataloged and preserved there: the growth of the early city and Boardwalk, the 1901 wreck of the four masted Sindia, the 1927 fire and the battle over “Blue Laws.” Ocean City has remained a sought-after vacation destination through all the economic and political changes Americans have seen over the past 139 years.
