Visit the Ventnor City and Atlantic City Boardwalk

[ NEW YORK, NY - NYC - 9/3/2011 - www.Littleviews.com ]

>>  Whether you walk, ride a bike, skateboard, or kick scooter, you'll absolutely enjoy doing so on the Atlantic City and Ventnor City boardwalk. As of 2011, it is in excellent condition and better yet, is perfectly flat.

The boardwalk, marked as a red line on the map below, provides access to everything you could possibly desire for a thrilling day on the Atlantic Ocean shore. There is so much to see and do, in fact, you might even want to stay a week in the vicinity.

While activities along Ventnor boardwalk do not include dining or gambling, they do include beach play, swimming, bike riding (as well as walking, jogging, etc.), volleyball, hobie cat sailing, kayaking, surfing, rowing, and fishing off Ventnor's magnificent long pier.

The entire distance of boardwalk from Fredericksburg Avenue to Atlantic City's far eastern inlet is a little over 5 miles long. Approximately 1.7 miles of the boardwalk is in Ventnor City, and approximately 3.5 miles is in Atlantic City.

Because the round-trip distance is ten miles, you might want to use some type of a vehicle, like a bike or kick scooter, to see everything so that you have enough time to relax, explore, and maybe even gamble. Permissible hours for biking, skateboards, and inline skating on the boardwalk differ slightly between the two cities. The main restrictions, however, occur between June 1 and Labor Day. After that, you can travel any way you desire as long as you respect pedestrians. (Note that kick scooters are not included in these seasonal restrictions.)

Both websites provide travel and touring information about New York City and surrounding areas, all of which information you can use when visiting an area on foot or on a vehicle, like a kick scooter or bike.
