OK, if you live in Maryland, or if you’re simply planning a visit to Maryland, you know about Ocean City, one of the most beautiful and fun spots in the entire state. But while Ocean City pretty much has it all — stunning ocean views, sandy beaches, a boardwalk teeming with cute shops and delicious restaurants, and an actual Ferris wheel — there are times when it just feels too much. It’s scorching hot in the summer and it can get really crowded, and of course it’s exhausting to walk miles in a beach town. Luckily, Ocean City has a hidden gem to solve those issues: The Ocean City Boardwalk Tram.
Never again suffer to get to different parts of the boardwalk – just pay $4 (or $8 for an unlimited pass) to hop on the tram and get where you need to go. And heck, you can ride it just for fun, too — it’s a super enjoyable way to soak in the town.
The town of Ocean City, Maryland is jam-packed with fun activities, especially on the boardwalk.
