Salt Water Taffy

Here's another fun thing about East Coast beaches: the endless bright lights and flashy boardwalk amusements! Sure, everyone loves going to a calm beach town where there's nobody around but you, some sand crabs, and the waves. But developed beach fronts can be fun too. Otherwise, how would you ever be able to fulfill those salt water taffy cravings, or buy inappropriate t-shirts for $5?

Ocean City's strip is fun since you can either take or leave the commercialized area. The beach town is host to tiny crab shacks where you can relax with your mallet and hammer, or mind-boggling money traps like "Candy Kitchen." Personally, I like a little of both.
