Atlantic City, NJ at a Glance
Those visiting the East Coast need not dream of Las
Vegas, at least not as long as Atlantic City retains its place on the New
Jersey Shore. As with Las Vegas, Atlantic City hosts the glitz and glamor
of luxury casinos,
complete with gambling, spectacular live performances and world-class shopping.
The biggest difference between this city and its Nevada
cousin is its location on the Atlantic Ocean. A playground for water sports enthusiasts,
Atlantic City offers deep sea fishing charters and ocean cruises, as well as opportunities
for simply taking in the sun on the beach, the
Boardwalk or one of the four piers. Next to Trump
Plaza Hotel & Casino on the Boardwalk is historic Boardwalk
Hall, a special events arena that hosts concerts, sporting events and other
live performances. Located between the Atlantic
City Convention Center and the casinos on the Boardwalk, Atlantic
City Outlets - The Walk is home to over 50 outlet stores, restaurants and
clubs.
