What is the closest shore point to Philadelphia?|188503

I want to drive down the shore today and I want to know what the closest shore would be, whether it_s in New Jersey or Delaware. Anyone know?

Back in the _old days_ (1970 or so) we used to call it, _The Atlantic City Expressway_. Not sure if it has the same name today, but a person could float the pedal around 79 mph and travel Philadelphia to Atlantic City in almost 1 hour. Others reading this may have better idea, but I believe that_s your best bet.

Wildwood NJ, Atlantic City NJ, and Ocean City NJ....

Wildwoods good if you like rides and a really nice boardwalk and a free beach...

Atlantic City is great for shopping and gambling...

And Ocean City is more calm, or Cape May which is kinda boring..

New Jersey is much closer than Delaware. Closest ocean beach in Delaware from Philly is two hours.

Distance wise, it_s Long Beach Island. But it_s a 2 lane road and you can_t go very fast.

Timewise from South Philly, it_s Atlantic City. Timewise from the Northeast is Belmar.

atlantic city is closest probably, but i_d go to ocean city... much nicer beaches... cape may is the farthest south but its very laid back, close to wildwood for rides and such

alantic city and marget and brigitine

Atlantic City Nj.

atlantic city, plus there_s lots of other stuff to do there besides the beach.
