The resort sports eight miles of life-guarded beaches and a 2.5-mile boardwalk perfect for walking, jogging and bike riding (bike and surrey rentals are available all along the boardwalk cross streets). Also close by, you’ll find a downtown shopping district where you can purchase everything from clothing to jewelry and leisure wear to homemade fudge and antique collectibles. For family fun amusement parks, a Gillian’s Wonderland Pier at Boardwalk and 6th Street and Playland’s Castaway Cove at Boardwalk and 10th Street are action-packed best bets.

To make the boardwalk even more suitable for family fun, every Thursday in July and August has been designated as “Family Night.” Also available for the kids are such as diversions as the 14-passenger Dolphin Watch & Stormin' Speedboat Rides and Seaside Go-Kart Speedway. Fans of miniature golf have their pick of themes from Pirate Island Miniature Golf to Medieval Fantasy Miniature Golf. There’s also a wide variety of free open-air entertainment from pop bands, oldies groups, a strolling barbershop quartet, face painters, yo-yo demonstrators, magicians and mobile karaoke stands.
