Besides the Somerset area which is free, I was told Ocean City had a "pay as you go" wifi signal that covered all of Ocean City. 3 questions please. Is this true? What is the SSID called? And how much is it? Thanks in advance.

Hi. I'm planning on taking the Greyhound Bus home from OC. I'll be staying at the Boardwalk One Hotel. I was told there was one on 3rd Street, near the hotel. Did that move to 12848 Ocean Gateway? Is there a Greyhound trailsways, if it did move that far? Please let me know. Thanks!
Tina,
Yes it did. They've got a shiny new terminal in OC.

Where can I find a map of the boardwalk businesses and restaurants? I was in OC, NJ last summer and there was a really cute, almost cartoon like map of their boardwalk. It really helped to plan the day.
Barb,

Is there anywhere you can drive on the beach?
You can drive on the beach in
Assateague if you purchase a permit.
There is a $70-$150 annual permit fee (depending on the type of access
desired). There is no weekly or other short term permits. Off road vehicles
must be "street legal"(motorcycles and ATV's are not allowed). Permits may be obtained at the Toms Cove Visitor Center in Virginia and at the
Sinepuxent Ranger Station in Maryland. Permits may also be purchased by mail.
Call (410) 641-3030 for an application.

I would to know what water taxi may be available in Ocean City to bar hop -- I am concerned about DWI's and the heavy traffic.
The Buzz boat water taxi goes to 20 bars/resturants in OC 561-512-2727. Most of the time the bartenders know other water taxi services to call too. I've also split a cab with people before which makes it a little cheaper. I like going to the Harborside in West OC and there are always state police there checking for DUI's. I keep Sunshine Taxi stored in my cell phone 410-524-7433
Have fun and be safe!

Hi!! I am coming from Northern Virginia and would like to know if there is any other way to get there besides going over the Bay Bridge? I am terrified of big bridges! Thanks!
Dawn,
You could drive straight up 95 into Delaware and take Route 1 into Ocean City. This would add about 30 - 40 minutes to your drive, but totally avoid the Bay Bridge. Toll are more, about $12, also. I suggest trying google maps and choosing the "avoid" function for Rt. 50. It should default to 95 North. I used the Ocean City zip code of 21842, with no street selected.

What are the exact directions to the Boardwalk?
Shamica,
From where?
The Boardwalk runs from the Inlet to 27th Street. It is accessible at any point from Coastal Highway and Baltimore Street. Parking is plentiful and available at the Inlet or at any paid meter on the side streets.
Here is a great walking map of the boards (http://ocboards.com/map.php).
Have a great vacation!
