More like a carnival than a boardwalk. Dirty and smelly.

3/5 - Okay

Great place if you want tourist fun options, but food menus seemed ok, but very high priced, even for the area.

Confusing to get to... we ended up parking far away to try to sace the $10 parking fee, instead we paid $5 but had to walk far... Next time I'll just try to get to the $10 parking (wherever it is?)

Hard to find. Once found there is a 10.00 fee to enter
