A wooden boardwalk stretches three miles along the Atlantic, where saltwater taffy shops compete with arcade bells and the screams from Trimper's Rides. Sink toes into ten miles of sandy beach or try catching dinner from the fishing pier. The Roland E. Powell Convention Centre hosts events year-round, while Sunfest and Springfest transform shoulder seasons into celebrations. Northside Park offers quieter pleasures away from the neon and noise. After sunset, the boardwalk transforms as families with ice cream cones give way to teenagers experiencing freedom by the glow of amusement rides. Don't miss watching the bay sunset - a simple pleasure that outshines even the flashiest attractions.
