The OC Life-Saving Station Museum is dedicated to preserving and educating communities on the cultural and natural history of the station and Ocean City, Maryland. This little gem is nestled into the end of the boardwalk, and offers a nice little surprise for all its visitors.

Learn about the local fishing communities and the men who served at the Life-Saving Station from 1874 through 1964. From original photographs to exciting exhibits, look at what Ocean City beach, boardwalk and life was like years ago and how it has evolved.

We think a visit here is one of the best things to do in Ocean City!
