Atlantic City

2 hours 22 minutes from Bentley Hotel

Atlantic City is a great destination for a day trip from New York. Breathe in the fresh sea air as you stroll the boardwalk and and do a little shopping. Afterwards, head over to the casinos and hit the slot machines. Finally, enjoy dinner at one of the fine dining options the city has to offer.

Atlantic City is to the East Coast what Las Vegas is to the Southwest. The casinos here attract tourists eager to gamble the night away or to just play a little. Save some time for sightseeing as you stroll the world-famous boardwalk with its many rides and places to eat. Or visit the historic Absecon Lighthouse, enjoy the golf courses, or simply just hang out at the beach. You can participate in parasailing or charter fishing or go on a tall ship cruise. There are twelve casinos to choose from, so there’s something for everyone at Atlantic City. Those who have been around since the city’s pre-gambling days can relive the past when they taste the saltwater taffy, which has been an Atlantic City specialty for over 100 years.

Feeling hungry? Stop for a leisurely lunch or brunch in the Pier Shops at Caesar.  An upscale shopping spot, the Pier Shops at Caesars is a windowed mall on the pier and a lovely place to spend the time. Here, you can enjoy views of the ocean, and browse plenty of stores too.

The Steel Pier is almost as old as the boardwalk itself. Built in the 1800’s, it remains a waterside wonderland, featuring classic rides, tasty food, and a whole lot of fun above the Atlantic Ocean.

Established in the 1800’s as a health resort, Atlantic City today is filled with high-rise hotels and nightclubs. In addition to gambling at the slot machines and playing the table games, the casinos offer spa treatments, performances by famous comedy artists, and provides an opportunity to sprawl on the beach while watching beach goers go by.

Atlantic City is 2 hours 18 minutes to JFK International Airport.
