Ocean City, MD’s finest - Seacrets 🐚🦀

Ohhhh, Ocean City, how I love thee.

It Was One Wet Hot Vax Summer at Seacrets: At the six-acre, 19-tiki-bar compound in Ocean City, it was almost as if the pandemic never happened . . . by Mimi Montgomery via Washingtonian.

At one of the 19 bars, I strike up a conversation with two New Jersey dudes who come to Ocean City every summer and spend every waking moment at Seacrets. “Last year sucked,” one of the guys tells me as he drinks a vodka-water—social distancing and masks hampered the drunken wandering and chatting that Seacrets is meant to foster. But he’s happy to report that this year things seem back to normal. “You’re in for a treat,” he tells me. “It’s a shitshow all day, every day.”

There’s just one bit of bad news: Seacrets used to have floating rafts in the bay where people could sip drinks and lounge, but they got rid of them during Covid for distancing reasons. Well, my New Jersey friend says, that and too many people were banging on them. “That’s the real loss of Covid. I know millions of people died, but the rafts! Put those f—ing things back.”

God bless.
