Ocean City Live Cam

Ocean City is a popular beach resort town located on the Jersey Shore in Cape May County, New Jersey. The town has a rich history dating back to the late 19th century when it was first developed as a seaside resort.

In 1879, a group of Methodist ministers established Ocean City as a "Christian seaside resort" with the goal of creating a place where families could enjoy a vacation without the temptation of alcohol or other vices. The town's founding principles were based on temperance and Christian values, and these principles continue to shape the town's culture today.

Ocean City grew rapidly in the early 20th century, and by the 1920s it had become a popular destination for tourists from all over the country. The town's boardwalk, which was first built in 1902, became the centerpiece of the resort, featuring amusement rides, games, and shops.
