Ocean City is designed for families. If you’re wondering where to stay, vacation rentals in the neighborhood provide a secured environment.

The most popular entertainment area is known as the boardwalk, and this includes eight blocks worth of family-friendly entertainment including eateries and shops. You can also find amusement areas such as OC Waterpark and Gillian’s Wonderland Pier. To go alongside this safe and welcoming environment, there is also no alcohol sold within the limits of the city. You can however nip to an area nearby and purchase your favorite tipple. Ocean City is a perfect family holiday spot, but no family is complete without their beloved pet.
