How this beach bum has never been to Ventnor before today is beyond me!…read more Pretty and quaint, with jaw dropping homes. No shops on their small boardwalk, but hell - saves me money . You need beach tags but we had a hook up's on loan. Clean bathrooms close by to the beach - bonus! A decent amount of restaurants. We enjoyed the quiet at the shore for a change.

Rest rooms were available and we're well maintained. Halfway out, there was a booth manned by a very friendly and informative lady. I thought there might be a charge to enter the furthest section but she explained they charge a fee for Fishing and allowed me in to explore and take some photos. She also explained the types of fish caught in the area and they also would see porpoise and some whales. Great night at Ventnor City Fishing Pier. Also, a block away was St. John's by The Sea - very nice, well kept church

At the gateway to this neat fishing village hidden in a corner of the city is this cool statue. There were lots of people hanging out near it and taking pictures. Turns out it was commemorated by our president while he still owned casinos in Atlantic City. There are beautiful water views nearby. You can also see commercial fishing boats and the Coast Guard from here. Neptune is fitting because he is the mythological Greek god of the sea. The statue is tastefully done. Cheers to Klaus-Dieter who inspired me to review statues.

A slew of good things to say about the Music Box at Borgata. First, they have their own box office…read morefor 'Day of show' convenience. The Music Box is located alongside the casino near the Borgata buffet. The location makes it very easy to enter comfortably right before showtime. The Music Box is not Borgata's main showroom, but instead a medium size venue with about 1000 seats. There are floor seats and elevated seating to suit most people's needs. You'll get a great view and sound from just about anywhere. If you're seeing a rock band, the first few floor seat rows to the side of stage may be too close to the speakers. They do have a bar within the theater with basic drinks. The venue is well-staffed with experienced help to ensure a smooth show.

The Music Box is an intimate venue, so every seat feels close to the stage and the sound quality was clean and well-balanced with the screens. The seats are small and not the most comfortable at the back section. The Borgata staff also did a good job managing the holiday crowd, keeping everything organized without long waits or confusion. There's also a bar you can get some drinks, but lines are long!

What a hidden gem! We've passed the Ocean City Life-Saving Station Museum for years and finally…read morestopped in--and we're so glad we did. The volunteers gave us what felt like a private tour, sharing not only the history of the station but also fascinating stories about Ocean City itself. We loved learning how the shoreline once came right up to the station, how the surfmen lived and worked, and how the station was brought back into service during World War II because of U-boats. The realistic mannequins, original equipment, and period rooms make it easy to imagine life there over a century ago. Best of all, admission is free, and it's clear the volunteers put their hearts into preserving this history. If you're visiting Ocean City, don't make the mistake we did and keep walking past it. It's absolutely worth a visit.

If you're at the shore and want to take a short break from all the sun and surf and other…read moreactivities, how about indulging in a little history. The historic life saving station in the north end of Ocean City is a pleasant journey into a bit of maritime history. You can still see some of the old life boats which were used in rescue attempts of people imperiled in and on the sea. The original kitchen and bedrooms are still here which were used by the men and women who worked at this facility and saved many a life over the years. Interesting enough - at one time this life saving station was directly on the beach and ocean but the years have shifted the sands and now it is a very long block inland from the water. Worth a visit if you are in the area.

I've never really exploited the rest of the city so this review is mostly from the boardwalks perspective. Not a lot has changed since I remember and that's a good thing. Plenty to do right off the boardwalk and there are plenty of hotels as well. It's a long walk from end to end of the boardwalk but it's a nice to do on a nice day. There's a trolley too(you have to pay) that can take you up and down the boardwalk as well. Great place to visit anytime of the year.

The marker is in excellent condition and is located on the grounds of the Absecon Lighthouse. It reads, "From September 19 to 24 1910, about 45 years after the last shot of the Civil War was fired, the 44th National Grand Army of the Republic (G.A.R.) Encampment (convention) was held in Atlantic City. The G.A.R., a Union (Northern) Civil War veteran's organization, had in attendance over 18,000 of its 214,000 members arriving from across the nation, many still suffering from wounds inflicted decades before in the War Between the States. The days of the gathering were marked by parades, and meetings for the Encampment were held at Steel, Million Dollar, Steeplechase, and Young's Ocean piers. Among the notable Civil War veterans in attendance were Major General Daniel E. Sickles, Lt. General Nelson A. Miles, and Johnny Clem, the famous "Drummer Boy of Chickamauga."" "It was the only time in the 83-year history of the Grand Army of the Republic that a National Encampment was held in New Jersey." "Erected on September 25, 2010 to commemorate the 100th Anniversary." The marker was installed in 2010 by The City of Atlantic City Grand Army of the Republic Centennial Committee.
