On sunny summer days crowds flock to the soft clean sands of Ocean City Beach. Have fun with the kids building sandcastles and flying kites. Lifeguards patrol the beach in summertime and put up flags to mark the safe swimming areas. Try your hand at bodyboarding, parasailing, surfing and standup paddle boarding ask about the designated surfing areas.

Fishing enthusiasts can join boat charters and cast a line in the hope of catching marlin, tuna and wahoo. Alternatively, rent a pontoon boat from the marinas and cruise around the Isle of Wight Bay. Canoes, kayaks and wave runners are also great ways to explore the bay at your own pace.

Out of the water, Jolly Roger Amusement Park has excitement-filled activities for all ages. Spend a day hopping between the pay-as-you-go attractions of the park’s themed areas.

For something different, go ice skating and watch live skating shows at the Carousel Ice Skating Rink.
