What do exhibits say about the 1933 storm?

Answer

Panels describe how the August 1933 hurricane and surge helped cut the Ocean City Inlet, changing fishing access and resort geography. Outdoor Inlet markers reinforce the same story. Read them before walking jetties so currents and boat traffic make sense.
