Media & Press

Ocean City is a writer's dream. It's an island rich in history and culture, with a diverse personality and intriguing seasonal and year-round populations. One of the most beautiful vacation destinations in the world, Ocean City attracts aristocrats, politicians, musicians, actors, artists and everyday families looking to escape to the beauty that abounds on our special Island. Visitors come from around the globe to spend a month, a week, or a day touring our quaint towns, exploring our vast stretches of beach, and sampling the "simple life" which lives on today.

This area of the site is designed with Press & Media professionals in mind. Understanding that each creative project has its own needs, we encourage you to contact us for assistance and to let us set up a customized press tour for you. If you're still working on the foundation of your story idea, and need a bit of stimulation, try browsing through our list of recent articles, unique story ideas, and our photo library where we feature hundreds of royalty-free images available for inclusion in your work, from many of the Island's most renowned photographers.

If you have a specific area of interest and would like to be updated regularly, we invite you to join our email lists by interest group. Emails of interest-relevant information will be sent monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly (depending on the information available) to registered subscribers.

Interest groups include: Arts & Antiques, Boating/Fishing, Conservation, Dance/Theater/Music, Events & Happenings, Family/Kids, Golf & Tennis, Hiking/Biking, History/Architecture, Home & Garden, Wedding, Wine & Dine. Subscribe today.

We look forward to working with you! The Ocean City Chamber of Commerce
