How far is oc from boston on a bus?
It is about 470 miles from Boston, MA to Ocean City, MD. It takes about 8 to 9 hours by car. I'd estimate it is generally a 10 to 12 hour bus trip depending on how many stops your route has.
Have fun in OC!

We will be staying in Ocean Pines. How far are we from the beach?
Depending upon where you are in Ocean Pines I would estimate approximately 10-20 minutes to reach Ocean City. Then it would simply be drive time once you enter Ocean City to whichever street you wish to hit the beach.
Personal suggestion - choose one of the beach areas above 33rd Street you should be able to find free side street parking without any trouble.
Thank you,
Anna G.

I heard that many of the businesses at the Boardwalk are closed during the "off season". I am considering a vacation in late March. Will there be open restaurants, etc. to enjoy? Also, while there, I would like to visit Washington DC for a day trip. Are there any organized bus tours that I could sign up for ahead of time?
Ocean City is 10 miles long and the boardwalk only takes up 2.5 miles of the beach side of it. So you will have no problem whatsoever finding bars and restaurants open all over town and in West Ocean City as well. And you can shop, play mini golf indoors at 68th and 136th St, play laser tag, go ice skating, go to movies, and just plain explore! We have museums and a library as well!
As for bus tours, Greyhound does come to Ocean City, but you would have to check their schedules for any busses that would run for just one day.

I am looking for a place to rent aqua bikes. They are like bicycle paddle boats that you can pedal around in the water. I've seen them on TV, but never in person. I was hoping that there was a place to rent them in ocean city. Any information would be greatly appreciatied.
I know what you mean, but I do not recall ever seeing them in Ocean City. I do not believe any of the marinas rent them.

Coming down for Easter Weedend will anything be open on boardwalk, arcades, thrashers. We always come down last week of August and also again this year just taking a weekend trip in april.
Lots of things will be open. Unless the weather is totally terrible, Thrashers, Fisher's, and all of the most popular places will be open for business. Jolly Roger pier rides are scheduled to be open that weekend as well, and the indoor arcades. Don't forget, you can still mini golf, ice skate at the Carousel Hotel, play laser tag at Planet Maze, and Baja Amusements in West OC should be open then as well for go karts! Plenty to do. And you will also find that Ocean City has churches for most affiliations for Easter Sunday service, along with a sunrise service on the beach.

Our family loves waves for bodysurfing as well as surfing. We are planning our trip for August. Never been there and would like to know if waves are present.
If surfing is an option are there any shops that provide rental boards?
Thanks
Oh yes. There is surfing and body surfing galore in OC.
These surf shops should be able to help you do what you're interested in:
Chauncey's Surf Shop on 28th St. and 54th St. www.chaunceyssurfshop.com
Malibu's Surf Shop 8th St. on the boardwalk www.malibus.com
K-Coast Surf Shop on 35th St. www.kcoast.com
Another place to check out is Sommers Surf Lessons for Women. Check out their website at www.sommerssurf.com
There are specific beaches for surfing, so you'll have to check with the shop as to which beach is open on which days and times.
Have a great time!
