Overview of your Ocean city tour:

Learn about the Founding of OC and Ongoing Efforts to Preserve Its Oldest Neighborhood on the first half of the tour, then head to the Boardwalk, passing by beach block mansions along the way. Starting on the Boardwalk from 6th Street, head down to 12th Street, stopping to taste several iconic Boardwalk foods. This introduction to Ocean City will cover the history of the island and much of the best-preserved architecture that still exists, as well as the community's religious heritage and environmental impacts such as beach replenishment. I grew up on the beaches, boardwalk, and avenues of Ocean City, even living there for a time. I understand the complex relationship between the living city today and its history, as well between the people who founded the town and the folks who visit it every year. This tour is a must for anyone who has ever visited Ocean City and wondered how it came to be.
