Beachfix, a website dedicated to all things beachy, just released their Best 15 Beaches On The East Coast.  With so many amazing options, one Cape May County beach destination came in above them all: Ocean City!  

Here's what they had to say about #1 Ocean City:

With 8 miles of wide sandy beaches and endless beach activities, Ocean City, New Jersey is many beachgoers’ favorite spot! In fact, it’s often referred to as ‘America’s greatest family resort.’ While it’s most popular during the summer when it’s warm, it’s also a great year-round vacation destination.

While all the beaches are lively and offer exciting experiences, Ocean City’s main beach is the most visited spot. There are several guarded beaches for safe swimming. Visitors also enjoy surfing, fishing, and sunbathing.

One of the most iconic attractions is Gillian’s Wonderland Pier, where you can enjoy rides, food, shopping, mini-golf and so much more! Playland’s Castaway Cove is another lively pier and boardwalk. There’s something for everyone!

Where to Stay

As such a favored destination, there are many great vacation rentals and hotels in the area. Here are a few top recommendations:

• Flanders Hotel: a beautiful, modern hotel with spa and beachside location
• Ocean City Mansion: a pet-friendly bed and breakfast close to the ocean
• Biscayne Suites: a casual full suite hotel with rooftop pool

When to Go

A beach vacation in New Jersey is best during summer when it’s warm. Winters get pretty chilly, with lows in the 20s and highs in the 40s and 50s.

• June-August: warmest weathers, peak-season
• May and September: nice weather and fewer crowds
