Ocean City Boardwalk

The Ocean City boardwalk is a place to stroll and take in the sights, sounds and smells of Ocean City. The boardwalk is 2.5 miles from the inlet to 27th Street.

I enjoy the sea air, the sound of crashing waves, the smell of caramel corn and french fries and vinegar. I enjoy the crowds of people walking by, the sight of kites lofting in the air, the amusement rides, the colored lights and the sound of a train passing by. I even enjoy reading the t-shirts as I pass them by.

Here's a link to some history about the boardwalk.

I hope you enjoy your stroll down the boardwalk in pictures and feel free to send a comment or idea for a future post.

I'm Paul McCardell, a librarian at The Baltimore Sun. The Sun ran its first photo on September 30, 1901 and today has more than 1 million photos in its collection from many different sources including staff, wire services and studios.

The Baltimore Sun staff has been blessed with some of the finest award-winning photographers, including my father, Walter McCardell, who was a Sun photographer for 43 years.
