This Jersey Shore seaside resort city is also commonly referred to as the “Las Vegas of the East Coast.” Atlantic City is known for its casinos, entertainment, nightlife, boardwalk, outlet shopping, saltwater taffy, fine dining, and adjacent beach life. Located in South Jersey, this resort-driven beachfront city follows the edge of the Atlantic, and lies between marshland and islands. Once a small fishing village, it is now a unique and kitsch experience, delivering a full day of activities for singles, couples, and families alike. There’s never a dull day in Atlantic City, the East Coast city that never sleeps.

When to Go
March-August is a good time to travel to Atlantic City. The temperatures are warmer, presenting a good time to enjoy the beach and water. There are also several cultural, music, and food festivals that occur in these months, such as the Tidal Wave Music Festival, Downbeach Seafood Festival, and the Atlantic City Latino Festival. June-August is peak season due to school being out and families taking their vacations so crowds can be thick. Fall (September-November) bring cooler temperatures, lower humidity, and less crowds. While the Winter months can be quite cold, with very little beach activity, they also bring more savings and deals towards travel, especially within the casinos, which are open year-round.
