Ocean City is Maryland’s beach town, a long barrier island lined with high-rise condominiums, hotels and beach houses, with a classic wooden boardwalk at its southern end. In summer, its population swells enormously as families from Baltimore, Washington, Pennsylvania and beyond arrive for vacations and weekend getaways. Tourism, real estate and fishing drive the local economy, and the town calls itself the White Marlin Capital of the World, with a large charter fleet working the canyons offshore.
For most visitors, the drive here includes the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and the two-lane roads of the Eastern Shore, where summer Friday and Sunday traffic can stretch a three-hour trip far longer. Flying private into Ocean City Municipal Airport, just across the bay in West Ocean City, sidesteps the backups entirely and puts you on the beach within minutes. Visitors come for the boardwalk’s rides, fries and saltwater taffy, offshore fishing, golf courses on the mainland, the historic town of Berlin and the wild ponies and empty beaches of Assateague Island.

Things to do in Ocean City
When to go. Summer is peak season in Ocean City, from Memorial Day through Labor Day, with crowded beaches and the boardwalk busy into the night. The White Marlin Open in August is the town’s signature fishing event. September and early October bring warm water, fewer crowds and events such as Sunfest. Hurricane season runs from June through November, so keep plans flexible. Winter is quiet, with some businesses closed.
