Atlantic City
Could someone please tell me if there is anything to do in Atlantic City for people who are not fond of gambling?<BR><BR>Many thanks in advance.

Not really, unless it's summertime, in which case there's a beach.
|
Bally's has a nice spa, and there are shows, but really, AC is for those who like to gamble.
|
There are the usual suspects: restaurants, shows, etc, that go along with any place that has big hotels. Outside of that, no.
|
If you golf, there are some fantastic courses nearby including Seaview, Harbor Pines and Twisted Dunes. Great beaches in Ventnor and Margate.<BR><BR>I second the Spa at Bally's which is great--if you get a massage you can enjoy the fitness center/indoor pool/whirlpool/steam, etc. for the entire day. Margate has some great places to eat. There's also a vineyard nearby which has tours/tastings.

There's a long boardwalk you can wander along, but there aren't many attractions to recommend. Ther's a Ripley's Museum which is kind of fun, especially if you're bringing children. And some old-fashioned candy shops where you can get good salt water taffy. The shopping is pretty dismal though, there's a mini-mall on a pier that's full of cheap, touristy dreck -- nothing good at all. If you don't like gambling AC is probably not a good choice.

Thank you all for your helpful responses.
