I do not have a question, but some info for the person traveling from Long Island to Ocean City. I am orginally from Staten Island and if I could suggest to you to take the Garden State Parkway all the way to Cape May and take the Cape May - Lewes Ferry. It will break up the drive and it is a nice relaxing break to the trip. There is a nice bar/restaurant at the ferry terminal. You can look it up at Cape May Ferry. Enjoy your trip. We will be making our 5th trip in 3 weeks and cannot wait. You will love it there.

Hey Lori, 

As a fellow New Jerseyan, I love taking the ferry myself. I have been doing it since 1987. I love it! That's the way I travel from New Jersey to Ocean City. That ferry is very relaxing, and sometimes you can see sea life. It depends on the time of year.
