If you are in the mood for a little light shopping, an hour or two on the beach, a stroll on the boardwalk then Ventnor City is the place for you. Sandwiched between Atlantic City and Margate, the Ventnor City shopping district is only two blocks from the ocean. Browse among specialty shops, unique gifts, antiques, books, clothing stores, candy and boutiques along Atlantic and Ventnor Avenues. Visit Jagielky’s Home Made Candies and see how they make the best candy at the shore. See Mike at the AAAA Bike Shop and take your family on a surrey ride on the boardwalk or rent a bicycle and ride the boards.
Get away from the crowds and noise of Atlantic City, take the kids to the Ventnor City Beachfront Park, visit the new Ventnor Library which has spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and is a wonderful place to have some quiet time. There’s a lot to do in Ventnor without spending a lot of money. Watch the surfers at Ventnor’s Surfing Beach located next to the Fishing Pier, play some volley ball or tennis, or hit a bucket of golf balls at the Driving Range.
Downtown and Uptown Ventnor offer an excellent selection of restaurants and sidewalk cafes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Ventnor has ice cream shops in every neighborhood and they offer outdoor tables to enjoy your favorite treats in the cool summer ocean breeze. Spend a romantic evening on the boardwalk; enjoy the free concerts during the summer at the Fishing Pier Pavilion and stay overnight at one of the elegant Bed and Breakfasts such as The Carisbrooke Inn and The Come Wright Inn.
