With a big, colorful entrance gate that arches over its old-fashioned wooden pier, Ocean City Boardwalk is one of the most famous tourist attractions in Maryland.

It offers more than three miles of shops, restaurants, games, rides, arcades, bars and hotels all packed into a single walkable location.

Shopping options range from kitschy t-shirts to beautiful handmade collectibles.

Food stalls have funnel cakes, crab cakes, burgers, hot dogs, caramel popcorn and huge buckets of cheese-topped French fries.

Carnival games will beckon you with their gigantic stuffed animals, and rides will keep you moving through carousels, roller coasters and Ferris wheels.

Other entertainment options include museum tours, pub crawls, bike rentals, outdoor concerts and boat trips around the water.

You’ll wear out your flip-flops before you run out of fun stuff to do.

If you want to have a good time in Maryland, Ocean City Boardwalk is a must do!
