TripAdvisor's Top Ten Things to do in Ocean City, Maryland

[@CG2589]

Just a little note for Christmas time, the North Side Park is the host of the annual Winter Fest of Lights. One of my wife and I's favorite light shows we have ever been.

This is the ultimate, most comprehensive guide to Ocean City I have ever seen. I love how you went with the Trip Advisor theme, and carried it out so well. I loved seeing all the attractions featured in the video. The Jolly Rodger park looks like loads of fun. They have everything, and even wrist bands for those who want to make the most of their visit. The boardwalk and beach houses provided such a nice setting. I also love doing dolphin cruises. We did one in Destin and saw a lot of dolphins. The restaurant looked cool, but I had a feeling the food wouldn't hold up. I'm glad you at least enjoyed your drinks. My daughter, Lola, gave you props for keeping it real. We all appreciate your honesty. It wa also enjoyed hearing how you ranked the top 10. Awesome video! I will catch up with the others asap!

We are glad you enjoyed it. We crammed a lot of activities into a 4 day trip to Ocean City but we ended up having a great time. Jolly Roger was fun - and Frontier Town ended up being more fun than we expected. Jack really enjoys dolphin cruises or whale watching cruises. I used to enjoy them - but about ten years ago, I started experiencing motion sickness in situations where I had never previously experienced motion sickness before in my life - boats on the ocean, motion simulator rides, 3D movies, etc. I can still ride in a boat on a calm lake or river. But my days of getting in a boat on the ocean waves to try to see dolphins are probably over I am afraid. It was a lot of fun putting together our version of the Top 10. Thanks for watching it - and for taking the time to comment!

Great video, I’ve been visiting Ocean City at least annually my entire life and have never been inside the museum. We spend most of our time on the beach and in the ocean. My happy place is riding a bike on the boards early in the morning. As kids we loved the rides, arcades and mini golf courses. The old time photos on the boardwalk are also fun to do.

Northside Park is so much more. They have Sundae’s in the Park every Sunday during the season and they do the Christmas Light show there in December

[@deatonl]

Missed the mark on this by not walking to the back of the park.

[@TrishLee]

What a wonderful and exciting place that is, full of lovely and fun things to do while being relaxed at the beach as well! You can try so many things there and enjoy it with your family! This was a nice tour my friend!❤

[@TravelingWithEmMe]

What a great idea for a video! You all did a great job! You need to make more videos like this! The place that had places for you to sit in the water is super cool! I like your Top 10 better!

[@tiffknight8498]

This is my summer playground since I was a wee little thing. I love the Giant Wheel out at the Pier.

[@SunKissedKrissy]

Trip Advisor is a MUST for me too! Kenny would enjoy fishing from the pier - that’s his laid back vibe.🎣 That distillery was cool! I stare in awe at the enormous copper stills.🥹 - my cous has them at his SF Chalet restaurants. The ale is so tasty!🍺🍻 Dining IN the water looked fun! Yay - It’s not just an island thing!💦🌴 The Maryland barrier island wild ponies are so beautiful. 🐴 Fun Jolly Roger! 🏴‍☠️🦞 I enjoy museums too. The shell art was so pretty. I LOVED seeing the Native American drum show. The jingle dresses are just beautiful. #1 The Beach! I agree sweet Alice!!! 🌊🌊🌊 Hooray!👏🏼👏🏼💯

[@trvlnthru]

The ponies on the barrier island really are beautiful. We got an even closer look at them a few days later on the island. There really was so much to do in Ocean City. It was a whirlwind trip and we fit A LOT into a few days. The distillery tour and restaurant/bar/club on/in the water was really fun. I just wish the food was good too. The drinks were good so that is something. Seeing the local amusement parks and the Frontier Town were highlights. But nothing can beat that beach. Whoever created that did an amazing job. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, Krissy!

[@SwiftyTravels]

Wow there is so much to do there!!! This is a great video idea. We camped near Ocean City when I was a child but I only remember the ocean. I love seeing the city. Those tables in the water look awesome!

[@trvlnthru]

There really is a lot to do in Ocean City. We really enjoyed trying out all of TripAdvisor’s suggestions. The tables in the water were very cool. We would have loved sitting out there if the wait for a table in the water wasn’t so much longer than a regular table inside. Thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to comment!

[@vafunseekers]

I do depend on Tripadvisor a lot! I have never seen seating in the water like this before. Frontier Town looked like a lot of fun too. I liked the order you ranked the attractions. Great video of an area that I'm not that familiar with. Appreciate the work that went into this video.

[@trvlnthru]

Thanks for the kind comments. We had a lot of fun checking out these attractions that made the TripAdvisor Top Ten list. We have found TripAdvisor (and other sites like Yelp or Google Reviews) to be very valuable in planning trips to places we haven't been. Of course, KZbin is also a very valuable tool for that as well. Ocean City is a lot of fun. Yall should check it out some day if you get the chance. Thanks for watching!

[@MyTravelChannel-RO]

Wow, your Ocean City video was so engaging! It really captured the essence of the place, making us feel like we were right there with you. The wild ponies and the Life-Saving Station museum were definite highlights. Thanks for sharing your adventures!

[@MollyFitzBrown]

Fun video idea! Looks like a nice area to visit with plenty to see and do :) Great info guys!

[@trvlnthru]

Yeah, this was really fun to put together. We enjoyed checking out the 10 most popular attractions in the area and seeing how we would rank them. There really is a lot to do in Ocean City. We will have to go back some day to see more of it. Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

Hello from Naples, Florida. We lived in Saulisbury, Maryland when I was very young (around 5 yrs old, I'm guessing), and I vaguely remember going to Ocean City. Thanks for sharing the amazing views with us, have a great week 👍 💯 ❤

[@destinationdero]

Ocean city MD is a great place to visit. Nice tour.

[@trvlnthru]

It is a lot of fun. And we found a lot of things to do while we were there. Thanks for watching!

[@jesshavinfun3547]

I'm enjoying this upload on the Top 10 things to do! I love the "Old West" town! The Boardwalk looks like a lovely place to spend the day ❤. Gorgeous beach!

[@pmarkjr5571]

One thing you didn't mention about North Side Park is the pier. A great spot to take in the sunset.

[@OffRampAdventures]

Great tour, as always, ya'll!

[@AlphaTraveler1]

Ocean city is always fun. We used to do this town as a vacation when we lived in Richmond, VA. Very cool. LIKE 25. 👍👍👍

[@trvlnthru]

Ocean City really is a lot of fun. I am not sure why we never tried it until now- probably because we lived in Virginia Beach and loved that beach town so much. But now that we tried out Ocean City, MD, we will definitely be back. We loved it!

[@TravelswithVandSteve]

I love the idea of doing TripAdvisor's top ten! We use that all the time. Funny the first one is actually the wrong peir! Great mix of things from rides and parks to a museum. The distillery tour looks good and the restaurant seating in the water looks so cool! You saw wild ponies! Looks like a great place with so much to do, and it looks like TripAdvisor didn't disappoint, but I think we'd agree with your list.

[@dayadventureswithgasper]

Sometimes I also use TripAdvisor for ideas. I love Ocean city, Maryland. Those boat rentals can get a little expensive. Very nice coverage of the Ocean city. Great information and videography. I loved your ranking list.

[@luziiluizth.8742]

Absolutely Amazing amazing videos sharing dear friend ❤️ Really enjoyed watching Super big big like thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍 See you again take care keep intouch ❤️ ❤❤❤

[@trvlnthru]

Thanks so much for watching our video about our recent trip to Ocean City, Maryland. We are glad you enjoyed it!

[@SomeplaceOrAnother]

Lots of fun stuff to checkout 🤠 17:29

[@trvlnthru]

There was a lot to do here in Ocean City. Loved that Old West experience at Frontier Town. Thanks for watching - and for taking the time to comment!

[@TheAdventuresofMegGreg]

Fantastic guide to Ocean City! I've never been before so this is really insightful and helpful. Looks like such a great place to visit too. Love how you paired this with Trip Advisor, that's a great idea. Too bad the burger was just okay and the jerked chicken was not hot at Seacrets. The island aesthetics is fun. The water sports all look really fun and such a cool way to see the area from a beautiful perspective. The carnival rides may make me sick LOL I'm such a wuss with these haha. Frontier town looks unique. Cool to see all the stuff they have. Love old fashioned towns like that even if a replica - they are so cool. Beautiful beaches too and I'm sure fishing is very popular here lol! Awesome video as always :)

[@JenniferandMark2014]

I’ve never been to ocean city, but it looks so nice. Lots of fun things to experience ❤Jenn

[@RetiredLovingIt]

Would have loved to seen the wild ponies! We’ve never been to Maryland. This was informative

[@trvlnthru]

We did end up visiting Assateague Island to try to see the wild ponies up close. We will show you that in an upcoming video. But you would love it. There really are a lot of fun things to do in Ocean City, Maryland. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@JustJonsie]

We went to Seacrets yesterday, the food was really good. I had the jerk Philly chicken sandwich and the hubby had a crab cake sandwich. We are foodies, it was hot and delicious. I recommend this place. Plus the key lime pie is to die for.

[@hammockstocoasters]

I’m not typically a beach type girl and I don’t drink alcohol so that’s probably why a lot of the vibe at a lot of places like this don’t scream out to me. However I really liked the look of that museum with the sand displays and such. Really excellent coverage here of the top sights.

[@DavidKearns4]

I also don't drink and don't like beaches, but Ocean City is a yearly must for me, sometimes even twice a year (off season is great when you don't need to go to the beach). I like the wildlife, salt air, walking the boardwalk, and the food. :)

[@RetiredLovingIt]

Wow! Seating in the water! We’ve never seen that before.

[@trvlnthru]

Yeah, restaurant seating in the water was new to us too. We would have tried it out ourselves if the wait for a water table wasn’t so much longer than the wait for an indoor table. But it did look very cool!

[@FloridaFlipFlops]

Like 44 👍 💯 ❤

[@rmkofmd1398]

So, no standout places to eat in OC? Too bad Phillips is closed. We always had a least one meal at Phillips each time my family visited when I was a kid.

[@V.W.A]

Like #10

[@NCMCPlantier]

When Seacrets first opened the jerk chicken was banging.

[@j4alfaro]

You forgot splash mountain witch is one great and amazing water park there is

[@jakealden2517]

Too bad you missed the wild ponies on Assateague Island.

[@trvlnthru]

Thankfully, on our drive back home, we stopped and spent about half a day on Assateague Island and ended up seeing numerous wild ponies. They were awesome to see in person. We put out a video about that experience a week or two ago. Thanks so much for watching - and for taking the time to leave a comment!
