Have you always dreamed of your own place at the beach? Worried that the downtown crowds will be too much for your family? North Ocean City has pristine beaches, quiet small town feel, and proximity to the excitement.
In addition to nice beaches to play on, North Ocean City offers a wide variety of fun.
Northside park is a beautiful oasis on 125th with fields, playground, walking paths, picnic areas, and a long crabbing pier – one of OC’s best kept secrets. The park is one of the few Fish-For-Free areas in OC. No license needed for children or adults with excellent crabbing. The park hosts popular family friendly Sundaes in the Park with live music and ice cream for a small fee. You can find more information at https://www.octhebeach.com/parks/NorthSidePark.

Camps for kids, a lending library, and a room to watch artists at work are also a part of the league.
