Somerset Street and the Boardwalk, Ocean City, Maryland 21842. Somerset Street provides a taste of the old and a taste of the South. From old time photos to great tasting souther style pulled pork sandwiches, this is one popular place to be on the Boards.

Somerset Street sign on the OC Boardwalk.
Looking north, you will find Tiki Sunrise Island Food (try the pulled pork sandwich) and Old Time Photos where you get to dress up and have your picture alone or with friends in old time western settings.
The Somerset Plaza sign stands tall between Candy Kitchen, where you can get dessert after having lunch or dinner at the Tiki Sunrise fast food stand. Hall’s Pioneer Hotel is the building that you see behind Candy Kitchen.
Everyone knows about Candy Kitchen and their chocolate covered strawberries, saltwater taffy, and other sweet treats. Here is the one of the famous Candy Kitchens sitting on the south side of Somerset Street.

Wicomico Street and the Boardwalk, Ocean City, Maryland 21842. Wicomico Street is one of the County streets – and just may represent the HEARTBEAT of the Boardwalk. This is usually the most popular (make that crowded) evening places to be in Ocean City. Here is where you find some of the main attractions, the Jolly Roger Pier Rides, Thrasher’s and Dolle’s – to name just a few.

Wicomico Street sign on the Boardwalk in Ocean City. This may be one of the most popular intersections in Maryland.
Look north to find the Hamburgers and Hotdogs food stand at the corner of other snack stands, souvenir shops, and even discount jewelry stores. The Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum is on the right, under the lights.
Turn west for another shot of the Wicomico Street sign that sits above benches where you can rest or eat the treats from the many food stands in the area. Behind you is the entrance to the Pier Rides and games.
To the south, Dolle’s is known for their famous saltwater taffy and caramel popcorn. To the left are more fun games that are part of the Ocean Pier Rides.
This is the moving shark that bursts out of the side of the Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum.

Walk the OC Boards over a decade and a half ago, virtually, with these Worcester Street Boardwalk Photos from 2006.

Worcester Street and the Boardwalk, Ocean City, Maryland 21842. Worcester Street just might be THE place to PLAY in Ocean City. Crowds of people nightly cram the local arcades. And on rainy days (sorry) the arcades are popular all day long.

Worcester Street is the spot to find two of OC’s most popular arcades – Sportland and Playland.
Looking North, you can see Sportland, an arcade which has old favorites such as Pinball and Skee Ball as well as many popular sport-theme games. You can even win prizes by trading in tickets that you earn as you play.
Need to give your feet a rest? Here’s a good spot between the Playland and Sportland arcades as you look west on Worcester Street. H20, OC’s under 21 night club, is just a block away.
Turn south to find Playland , another arcade with over 250 games to play and earn tickets that can be traded in for prizes. If you work up an appetite, go next door to the Dough Roller for pizza or sandwiches.
The public restrooms at Worcester Street are always open to board walkers and beach-goers.
