[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP did you look at the north end of Ocean City? It’s a lot quieter than midtown or down by the boardwalk. There are some quiet neighborhoods on the bay that are still walking distance to the beach. We can’t hear the highway at all from our place. We drive north to DE to eat and shop a lot more often than we drive south. But occasionally we go down by the inlet where there are a couple of good restaurants.

I wouldn’t call Bethany quiet and not crowded, at least not on summer weekends. The downtown area is packed. But it is family friendly. There are a million teens everywhere because parents feel it is safe for them to walk around, which is nice for them. [/quote]

Ocean city?! No way. Bethany over OC any day of the week. You can't even compare the two. OC is pretty trashy. [/quote]

Unlike you, I can handle being around people who don’t make as much money as I do. Please stay up in Bethany and enjoy your tiny strip of beach that’s getting smaller every year.[/quote]

okay, I've been going to eastern shore beaches for 40+ years, ever since my fam moved from Buffalo NY to Balt MD, back in the...well you do the math.

Ocean City MD and Rehoboth DE are similar in that there's a boardwalk with lots of people and lots of junk food and lots of pirate booty (tourist souvenirs) to buy.  OC is far larger than Rehoboth.  Bethany/Dewey/Fenwick, which are between the 2 mentioned above, are less built up but still crowded on summer weekends.  And because they are less built up, they will have less restaurants/pirate booty etc. from which to choose.  So yes, beaches are less crowded, but there is still a summer weekend crowd.

Bethany beach has always been a hoity-toity area as there are prominent people who own homes there. BUT... Being even a nobody like me went to one of those parties once, means they think they are more special than they really are as I'm a nobody and wonder woman is still pretty cool.[/quote]
