Top 5 Reasons to Visit Ocean City this September
- Less Traffic & Crowds
Do you hate sitting in traffic and waiting in long lines? SAME. Sometimes, the busy months of summer can look like this in our buzzin’ beach town. Coming to Ocean City in the later months gives you more space to enjoy the beach, dine at your favorite restaurant, experience the rides at Jolly Roger Amusement Park, and so much more.
- The Weather
In the middle of summer, like July or August, you’re faced with the hottest temperatures of the year. When you visit during those months, you also have a higher chance of thunderstorms that will limit your beach time. In September, the weather is still warm enough to enjoy a beach day without the miserable heat!
- The Water is Warm
Another great reason to visit the beach in September is the ocean water temperature. If you came to visit OCMD anytime from May to early August, the weather might’ve been hot enough for you to jump in the ocean, but the water was probably pretty cold. Forget that! Come visit when the water is so cool and refreshing, you’ll want to spend all day in it.
- Savings & Deals
The early bird might get the worm, but good things come to those who wait! The Grand Hotel offers exclusive discounts when you book your stay from September 12th to 30th. Our Endless Summer deal gives you 40% off your room. You don’t want to miss that!
- End of the Season Events
Some of the best Ocean City events take place during this time of year. Take a trip down the road to Salisbury for the National Folk Festival, an iconic event full of culture and fun entertainment. Then, OC Bikefest is in town for bike lovers near and far to experience. End the month with Sunfest’s four fun-filled days of arts, crafts, delicious food, hayrides, and more.
