I’ve been looking for you. It’s time to pay for college.

The town of Ocean City has no legal way to prohibit high school grads from coming, anyone can rent a hotel room. They have a Play It Safe program to help keep kids safe, with free activities and discounts on food, bus transport and alcohol free entertainment. Motel/hotel rooms generally can be rented if 18, but condos usually require signature of someone 25 or older to be legally liable for damages. The city does try to protect kids from themselves and will check cars etc for illegal alcohol. If kids are drinking or causing problems, they will be evicted with no return of deposits. They do keep a tight leash on illegal drinking, drugs and nuisance behavior. OC does a good job with this, but can’t fix stupid decisions kids can make.

Plenty of parents don't allow the use of the car, so it doesn't happen. Plenty of parents just say no, they say no to "good" kids, they say no to 18 years. If parents don't facilitate it, btw, it's not very likely to happen.

OP here. Yeah, I'm planning on doing 0% of the facilitating.
