Jolly Roger at The Pier, Theme park at Ocean City, Maryland, US
Jolly Roger at The Pier is an amusement park located directly on the boardwalk overlooking the Atlantic Ocean with roller coasters, carousels, a Giant Wheel, and various thrill rides. The park features attractions ranging from gentle to fast-paced rides, along with game arcades and food stands scattered throughout the grounds.
The park was established in 1964 and grew from a small boardwalk attraction into a major entertainment complex with numerous rides and family attractions. Expansions and updates over the decades transformed it into a centerpiece of the Maryland coast's amusement scene.
The park keeps traditional boardwalk carnival entertainment alive through game arcades and classic seaside snacks that define the Maryland coastal experience. Visitors find a blend of old-fashioned games and modern rides that draw families together throughout the season.
The park is easily accessible on foot from the boardwalk and offers free admission to the grounds. Plan extra time on weekends when crowds are larger, and consider arriving early to avoid long wait times at popular rides.
The Cyclone is an unusual ride that combines go-kart racing with roller coaster thrills on a 1500-foot (457-meter) track that climbs five stories high. This hybrid experience of driving and flying sensations sets the Cyclone apart as something truly different at the park.
