I have been riding the Giant Dipper for 45 years. It's the best. Things have changed since the last time I was there. Some things don't change ---go early o get a parking spot.

We spent a couple of days visiting the boardwalk. It was especially nice that we could visit the beach in between walking the boardwalk. The rides are typical and expensive, just like any amusement park. Parking was $12.
Bands on the Beach! Fantastic!!!!!!! Seal watching, original boardwalk, "Lost Boys" Railroad Bridge filming location! It has it all :0)
The beach was great and the views were even better. The town was nice and clean. We went there in December and the town was very quiet in the afternoon. We saw the surfers in the cold ocean. We like to go back in Summer next time.

There were a lot of rides to choose from for our kids and then we spent hours watching them play on...

Everything on the beach is fun.This weekend had long lines and soccer players on the beach.Food does cost.Great fish and chips plate. At least take your own drinks.
I went here with my teens and we all had a good time, although we have different interests. The Boardwalk is adjacent to the beach with easy access - indeed there are even foot washing stations as you exit the beach straight onto the Boardwalk. We were there in early June and they are constructing a new roller coaster. The...
