Answer
No—you cannot camp overnight on the Ocean City, Maryland beach or Boardwalk. The Town beach is a day-use resort shoreline, not a campground. Overnight beach camping is not how Ocean City operates.
Tent and RV travelers stay at mainland campgrounds and RV resorts in Worcester County, or at Assateague Island park sites a short drive south. Book early for summer weekends and holiday weeks.
Start at the Camping hub, then compare private parks with Assateague camping and the Assateague camping FAQ.
