Discover cool things to do
in Atlantic City

Welcome to Atlantic City

Just over 2 hours south of downtown New York, on an 8-mile-long South Jersey shore barrier island, Atlantic City New Jersey has been drawing visitors to its resort hotels and boardwalk since the mid-1800s. Long a party town, and a casino gambling destination since 1978, Atlantic City is famous for casino hotels, with show venues where stars like John Legend and Jay Leno appear, the boardwalk, and the venerable Steel Pier with its amusement park and food stands. For family fun, play on the beach, walk the Steel Pier, try an interactive escape room experience, operate an excavator or bulldozer at a construction adventure park, or enjoy a funnel cake, the historic Boardwalk staple.

I had an awesome time learning about the real ghosts of the boardwalk empire! This was a great way to take a break from losing money at the casinos.

The tour guide was knowledgeable and a great storyteller. It was interesting to see the changes to the city over time.

We went here in 2021 and did the Wild West, X-Files, and Weird Science rooms. We loved how the owner was really invested in making a great escape room experience. When we knew we were going back to New Jersey this fall and saw they had a new room (Hellevator), we definitely wanted to go. We weren't disappointed. Really fun ways to solve the puzzles with unique locks and great, fun theming. We've been to escape rooms in 10 different states, and this was definitely one of our favorite locations.

The show was funny and exciting. The artists were all great and very skilled. They keep the audience involved the entire time. You must go into this show with an open mind and remember that it is an adult environment show. Definitely worth a watch if you are looking for a good laugh and skilled performers.
Great time!

Had a great time on the boardwalk. The food was delicious! Print your voucher for access and make sure you bring additional cash ($40) in small bills to cover toll expenses!

The experiment was great. Having the restaurant on the floor of the casino makes it more lively. We did waiting a pretty long time (almost an hour) to be seated. The food was ok, I ate a burger and the meat could have had a bit more taste. But it was enough to get me full. The bill was up there, so be prepare. But in over all it was great. The server was very kind and friendly. He took his time and explained everything. I guess because of how busy it was, the food also took a bit long to come out.

Very talented performers in a quant unique theater. Audience participation was fun. Seats are very tight but we did not have every seat filled around us. Hosts were hilarious but many of the quips were lost in a muffled echoey sound system that needs improvement. A little pricey at $85.

We had an amazing time celebrating my birthday on an OC scavenger hunt! Alana & Kathryn were encouraging and interact. We are lifelong visitors to OCNJ, but we found some new food places when we added on the snacks to our experience!

There were no escape rooms in AC where young children were welcome , so we were happy to find Escape at The Shore, just 20 minutes away. The clues, were fun and challenging and not at all frustrating ( though we did require some help). Our 6 year old ( who suggested the outing) was fully immersed in finding the clues. All family members contributed to our successful escape, including our ( almost) 4 year old who was our rock star by somehow finding 2 of the clues on his own! We are looking forward to returning for another challenge!

We had an amazing time. We was the only two in the room and totally scared. They help us through our clues. The overall atmosphere was incredible. Will definitely be back to finish this room.

puzzles were challenging but tips and persistance paid off and we got done around 9 minutes early. Liked the variety and quality of the game including some higher level tech aspects that integrated seamlessly.
