Often referred to as "America's favorite playground," Atlantic City, New Jersey has a host of amenities that appeal to visitors of all ages. Some come for the sun, some for the Boardwalk, but most people are here for one thing—gambling.

Atlantic City is home to 13 casinos that vary tremendously in both style and flash. Whether you are seeking the glitz and glamour of the Taj Mahal, or the intimacy of the smaller, almost vintage Claridge casino, these 24-hour gaming halls cater to just about everyone. In addition to gaming, most casinos offer a variety of headline entertainment, including famous singers, professional dance troupes, up-and-coming comedians, and much more. Atlantic City also has an exciting nightlife both inside and outside the casinos, ranging from 24-hour pubs and taverns to various forms of adult entertainment.

Atlantic City's Boardwalk and beaches have been the site for countless Hollywood movies, carnivals, parades, and other events, including the Miss America pageant held here every October. More than 34 million people visit this resort each year to enjoy not only the casinos, beaches and Boardwalk, but also the city's other recreational amenities, such as championship golf courses, tennis, spectator sports, charter boat fishing, sailing, fine dining, shopping, amusement parks, and more.
