3 days in Atlantic City Itinerary

The gambling capital of the east coast, Atlantic City is best known for its numerous casinos, colorful boardwalk, and beach.

You'll explore and learn at Cape May Lighthouse and Brigantine Historical Museum. Atlantic City Boardwalk and Emlen Physick Estate are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Step out of Atlantic City with an excursion to Cape May Beach in Cape May--about 56 minutes away. There's much more to do: try to win big at Borgata Casino, look for gifts at Smithville Peanut Butter Company, take in the waterfront at Kennedy Plaza, and admire the striking features of Lucy the Elephant.
