Right now we are trying to decide between Ocean City, MD and Virginia Beach, VA for a trip in June or July. Which beach has a better atmosphere for families with young children? I know that all the "resort" beaches have their party goers and such so I know to expect a degree of that no matter where we decide to go. Ocean City, MD would be a little closer for us to get to and it seems like there is more to do, but the lodging rates are very high. Virginia Beach, VA would be a little further of a drive for us but it seems like there are more affordable lodging options. We don't plan on doing a full week long beach trip so we are looking at places with clean, reasonably priced hotel suites that have a kitchen/kitchenette and can accommodate a family of six. We have already visited the Jersey shore for a family reunion (Atlantic City & Ocean City, NJ); and we have ruled out the Outer Banks of North Carolina, Myrtle Beach SC, and Hilton Head Island SC because it would be too far of a drive for us, especially since we don't want to spend a full week at the beach. Thanks in advance for any feedback and replies.
