The lovely resort town has become known as the Las Vegas of the East Coast today, home to glamorous high-rise resorts, 24/7 casino floors, and eclectic nightlife options.
Couples can stroll along the city's picturesque Atlantic Ocean boardwalk, which was the first public boardwalk in the country at its opening in 1882, and explore delightful attractions like the Steel Pier amusement park, home to high and mild thrill rides like a giant observation wheel.
