Trimpers Rides, Theme park on South First Street and Boardwalk, Ocean City, US
Trimpers Rides is an amusement park along Ocean City's Boardwalk featuring both outdoor and covered indoor sections with classic carousels, modern roller coasters, and carnival games. The grounds span several connected areas, each offering different rides and attractions suited to different age groups.
Daniel B. Trimper and Margaret Trimper founded the Windsor Resort in 1893, which gradually became one of the oldest operating amusement parks in the United States. This shift from hotel to entertainment venue reflects how coastal destinations grew in popularity during the early 1900s.
The 1912 carousel with 45 hand-carved animals represents a chapter in American entertainment that connected generations of families. Visitors notice how people still gather around this piece, making it feel like a living part of local tradition.
The park operates from early April through mid-September, with both outdoor and covered indoor attractions available throughout the season. Visitors should prepare for changing coastal weather and can explore different sections depending on when they visit.
The grounds transform seasonally for special events like farmers markets, car shows, and children's entertainment programs throughout the summer. These rotating activities make each visit feel different, as the overall mood changes depending on what is happening that particular week.
