although it was crowded, it was a nice relaxing evening on the boardwalk. There was shopping restaurants and ice cream of course. My son loved the carnival rides. there were only a few but it was a nice little place. It has a little stingray petting zoo as well. We ran into it by accident so it was fun for us but it isn't a place you want to stay for more than a night. One night is enough to expeirence it all.
