The Unique Town In New Jersey That’s Anything But Ordinary
New Jersey is home to a plethora of unique towns, but few are quite as extraordinary as Ocean City. The family-friendly shore resort is a top summer travel destination but has plenty to offer year-round. Here are a few reasons why everyone should visit “America’s Greatest Family Resort.”
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date. If you know of a local business that could use some extra support during these times, please nominate them here: onlyinyourstate.com/nominate


Visit Gillian's Wonderland Pier with its historic carousel, the Ocean City Waterpark, Adventure Golf, Island Grill and Oves Restaurant - which also offers bike rentals.

Some of the parade's most notable attributes are the Basset Hound Waddle (a brigade of over 500 basset hounds) and the traditional (shaving cream) pie throwing closing ceremony.

Or, the Night In Venice boat parade, which is always fun to watch.



Visit on December 2nd for their annual Christmas Parade or on select Saturdays and Sundays for free horse and carriage rides. Have breakfast with Santa, enjoy a Very Ocean City Christmas holiday show and more!

And all of this is just the beginning of what makes Ocean City, New Jersey so special. For more on the town, check out my previous article: Everyone From New Jersey Should Take This One Awesome Vacation Before They Die.
