Ocean City offers something for each vacationer’s agenda. Most head for the sun and fun of the beach and renovated boardwalk. Sports enthusiasts seek out tennis courts or tee off at one of 17 championship golf courses. Surfers abound . . . riding the waves and providing a show for early beachcombers. Anglers try to top each other with a catch of the day and tales of the “one that got away.” There is something for everyone including museums, antiquing and amusement park thrills.
Ocean City was awarded the coveted “All American City” title in 2001. Ocean City’s Boardwalk was declared as one of the world’s best boardwalks in March 2002, by the Travel Channel. This is no surprise to those who live or vacation in the area. Wedged between the Atlantic and the bay, nostalgic Ocean City offers a 10-mile stretch of coastline punctuated by a three mile action-packed boardwalk. Generations of families make it an annual tradition to return to this mecca by the shore with plans to play, relax and revel in making new memories to last a lifetime.
An increasing number of vacationers visit in the off-season, taking time to reflect and appreciate the solitude of quiet beaches. The menu of annual events has expanded to include the Springfest, the Fourth of July celebration, the White Marlin Open and an array of fall festivities including the Winefest, Octoberfest, Offshore Powerboat Races and the Ocean City Celebrity Golf Classic. The Winter-fest of Lights has the shore shining from mid-November through early January. Thanksgiving and holidays are special at the beach, and there is nothing like ringing in the New Year with a toast to the ocean. Come join us anytime!
So when you get home, hold a shell to your ear . . . the sound of the beach is already calling you back. Our rental coordinators are here to assist you with your next vacation. Long & Foster is Your Link to the Beach®.
