Hi. My family and I have spent the last few summer vacations in Ocean City. We like it because of the dry boardwalk and its family friendly feel. Is there any place else on the Jersey Shore that is good for families with things to do like Ocean City? Thanks-

There're no other dry shore towns that I'm aware of, which is a lot of what gives OC the "family feel", but there are quieter beaches that even though have alcohol won't attract the college crowds or partiers - but they won't have rides and other things like that, either. I admit I have no familiarity with the beaches farther up like LBI, but speaking for Atlantic and Cape May County, I haven't seen any place that I would equate with OC in terms of being little-kid friendly/wholesome. This doesn't mean you and your family can't enjoy the other towns though, there is lots to do in Wildwood and if you stay in Wildwood Crest you are close enough to enjoy the rides, etc but still out of the fray enough to avoid the crowds/partiers.

ocnjgirl is right -- there's no other place quite like it. If you love OC, why go anywhere else?
