3 Best Shopping in Ocean City, The Eastern Shore
Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Ocean City right now.
Ocean City's 3-mi-long boardwalk is lined with retail outlets for food, souvenirs, more food, and more souvenirs, with a smattering of surprising specialty stores. Side streets are filled with still more shops, as are the avenues parallel to the beachfront in the older, southern end of the island. Farther north, the atmosphere changes; the beaches a block away become almost incidental. Shopping plazas—several composed of factory outlets—vie for attention behind acres of parking.
The Kite Loft
The Kite Loft
with its dazzling line of kites as well as banners, flags, wind socks, hammocks, sky chairs, whirligigs, and wind chimes, is more than just a store. It's symbolic of Ocean City: the kites, thriving on the ocean-side winds and flying high over the boardwalk all day long, and visible for long distances, are an iconic welcome to the beachfront.
