Look west to find the Boardwalk sign that sits at the main gateway of Ocean City, a greeting to vacationers as they cross the route 50 bridge. (We thought we would show you this view because most people never notice the sign from the back.)
Turn south to find Edward’s, the Boardwalk’s own department store. If you forgot to pack anything from toiletries to swimsuits to an outfit for an evening out, Edward’s is the place to find it.
Officers of the Ocean City Police Department patrol the boards.
