To which Ocean City (NJ or MD) do you refer?

26N (Ocean City, NJ) is my favorite "walk on the beach" destination, with
the airport just four or five blocks from the beach. But it was only this
past weekend that I *finally* got there in "beach season".

I expected worse (ie. crowded beach, grass parking, busy pattern, etc.).
Nope. There's traffic there, but not in excess (okay, so there were four
of us in the pattern...I was the only non-ultralight {8^). Parking wasn't
a problem, and the beach looked nice.

Beach tags are required, so be warned.

Also, plan if you need a taxi. My wife and I walked the 1.5 miles to the
part of the boardwalk where food starts. We planned to cab back, but only
called when we needed it. Mistake! 20 minute wait? We walked back.

That's where I'd go for vacation. Rent a place between beach and airport.
Swim, fly, swim, fly...

Now if only I actually took vacations sigh.

That's the one my wife and I go to. We love it . . . short walk to the beach,
and the FBO has showers so you can clean the sand and salt from your bod before
climbing into the cokpit for the 1 hour flight home.
