Ocean City is an Atlantic resort town with year round population of about 7000, hosting 8 million + visitors annually. It is a part of a barrier island on the East Coast of Maryland, about 150 miles (241 km) southeast of Washington, D.C. and 240 miles (386 km) south of New York City. Easy-going Ocean City is all about summertime family fun doing the activities Americans have enjoyed for generations: eating salt-water taffy, flying kites over sand dunes, playing putt-putt golf. Amusement parks deliver on merry-go-rounds and Skee-Ball action, while renowned golf courses offer another kind of play. And its proximity to Philly and the D.C. area only adds to its appeal.
