I wanted some ideas for a beach trip next year. I live near Philadelphia and want to go to the beach but do not want to go to the Jersey Shore. I am deciding between Long Island, NY, Rehoboth Beach, DE, Ocean City, MD, and Virginia Beach, VA, as to where to go. Which of those four options is the best for a beach vacation?

Do you like beaches crammed with amusement attractions or do you want the beach to yourself?

I chose Ocean City, MD for my main vacation this year. It is one of the best places you can go for a vacation.

Traveled, plus several state routes

Lowest untraveled: 25 (updated from 14)

New clinches: MA 286
New traveled: MA 14, MA 123

There is a DART bus from Wilmington to Rehoboth Beach that runs on summer weekends, the 305. From there, there are connections to other DART Beach Bus routes including the 208 which goes to Ocean City, MD and connects to the Ocean City Beach Bus.

I would like to go to a beach with things to do including restaurants, nightlife, and a boardwalk

Ocean City or Rehoboth, then.
