This is something that I always wanted to see after watching the TV shows and hearing about the museums. I have never been close enough to any of them until now. This is defenetly a cool thing to stop at while in OC and especially if you have kids. Younger kids will probably have a hard time here since most... more

Wasn't sure what to think about going to a Ripley's museum, but have to say, I had a great time. Lots of interesting exhibits to see. We took our 3, 6, and 9 year old kids and it was a great way to spend a morning. The kids weren't as interested in reading about the exhibits as we were, but... more

Loved this place. Very entertaining and fun! A must-see while in Ocean city and great for all ages. Not overpriced at all compared to location in NYC which is in no-way better than this one! more

Ripley's museum was an entertaining collection of strange objects, optical illusions, and best of all an entire room dedicated to sharks. It was an enjoyable hour that we spent there and although the admissions price is a tad high, about $11 or so, we would recommend a trip here to those looking for something out of the ordinary. more
