- New Jersey: 1 Day in Atlantic City, NJ - Travel Vlog | Our first time on the Jersey Shore!
For state #31 on our journey to all 50 states in 2021, we visited New Jersey! More specifically, Atlantic City! Unfortunately, our time on the Jersey Shore didn’t go quite as planned. Our day at the beach was interrupted by some nasty thunderstorms, but you know us… Even with the less than ideal weather, we were able to squeeze in some fun between the thunder claps and downpours! From exploring the world famous boardwalk to trying the original Salt Water Taffy to watching a beautiful sunset from the iconic Steel Pier Ferris Wheel, our time in the Garden State wasn’t all lost!

== About Us ==
We’re Matt and Nat, a part time travel couple based out of Nashville, TN. Like everyone else, 2020 turned our world upside down. With more time on our hands than ever and multiple international trips canceled, we were left wondering what our 2021 travel plans would look like.
What we realized is that we wanted to see more of our own beautiful country, so we decided to set out on our biggest adventure yet… to see all 50 states in a year!
This channel is about all things travel & adventure. From vlogs, to tips & tricks, to crazy travel stories, the best foods, as well as product & service reviews, & soo much more.
So please make sure you SUBSCRIBE (it really helps us out) to follow along on this crazy adventure. :)
Haha that boy that’s say hi was my son thanks for stopping by love ur videos
Haha... That's awesome!! It was so nice meeting y'all! 😊 Thanks for watching! And for the sunscreen! Haha
Hi in case you didn't know, The Hard Rock used to be Trump Taj Mahal and the Steel Pier used to go out a lot further than that little tiny piece of pier that they have there now.😎
I really like videos like this because I was born and raised in NJ so we always went to AC for summer vacations. But after doing that so many times over the years you start to take it for granted so seeing people experience something like this for the first time reminds me of why I got to this point of being there over and over again for years. Wish you guys the best!
AC is coming back!
So glad you guys tell it like it is! Like the optimism too, but like that if you are eating something you're not sure you like, you say so! So sad the coast rained on you. It is what it is and you made the best of it.
It's been many years since I've been on the AC boardwalk! My husband had a house one summer (1979) along with several friends on the beach block when the casinos were first being built and we were only just dating. What a great times back then! Now we go to other NJ beaches but I will always remember that AC summer.
Lover your videos! I just found you yesterday and have seen a few of them so far. You both always seem so upbeat and positive. You look like you are always having so much fun together and it gives the viewer a nice pick me up!
"HOT CAKES!!!"
Been to New Jersey 3 times in Atlantic city, enjoyed my time. I want to visit cape May and ocean city NJ.
Amazing job to both of you for this video and facing the Storm for Us.
Your guys are lucky to have someone who shares your interest. Enjoy. Love the lip color.
We are definitely blessed to have each other! Aww… Thanks! Ohhh… You’re talking about Natalie lip color, not mine! 🤣🤣 JK… I’ll be sure to let her know! Thanks for watching!😊
Thanks!
Just found your channel I will be watching all your videos!! I would love to see your room’s and where you stay!! I am from NJ and we have wanted out many storms on the beach. You powered through like a true NJ peep!!!
Awww love that you found us!!! We are happy you are here! 💗🎉 lol ohh ok! We will absolutely do that! For this day we actually just took the train in from Philly for the day. Next time we will be spending the day! 😂😜🎉 Would’ve been so nice to have a room to go to when it started raining! Haha I’m happy to hear that, makes us feel like a local! Lol
We're just gonna say congrats on hitting 10K subs now, bc by the time we finishing watching this, we're SURE you'll have hit those last 3. 🎉
Man, it's been a LONG time since I've been to AC (Stephen), but yeah - that NJ heat & humidity is no joke. The lightning behind Nat @5:53!!! And the warning siren sounds SO ominous, jeez! I'm so glad it turned around for ya... for a minute at least! We're veggie these days, but def' understand the meat-to-bread ratio situation... this bread lover's gotta say, 90% is kinda high. 😁 Another super-fun video, you two! Congrats again! ♥️
Aww... Thanks so much guys!!!😊 Yea, we're no strangers to heat and humidity being from the south, but it kicked our butts this day! Lol... Right?! It was all pretty scary sounding! But we survived! AND got some beach time in! Haha... Thanks so much for watching y'all!!😊
Wow, I love this kind of video.💙💙💖💖💚💚
Thank you so much for uploading the video. My friend !
Aww thank you so much! That makes our day to hear! 🥰🎉 We appreciate you watching & being on this adventure with us!
Ooooh Atlantic City storms are pretty epic! So funny that you guys were vacationing on the beach with lightening in the background. So glad we found your channel, you guys have such a fun energy. New subs here 🙌
Hahaha... Right?! We were determined to get some beach time in regardless! Lol... Thanks for watching!😊 We're so glad that you found us as well! And thanks for the Sub!!😊
Salt water taffy is my favorite
I love you guys you just make the best of worse situations and vlogg was still awesome
Aw, thanks so much!🥰🥰
Hey guys!! Looks like New Jersey treated you like those little sour candy bears. First they’re naughty, then they’re nice lol!!! The last thing you expect at the beach during the summer is thunder, lightning and pouring down rain but you guys made the best of it and just rolled with the punches. I think the sunset on the Ferris wheel at the end was New Jersey’s way of saying “sorry for being a Karen earlier” 😂😂😂 Hope you guys are doing well and staying safe. God bless you both and safe travels😊
Hahaha... That's the best description of this trip that we've heard! Lol... But yes, we did our best to just roll with it! And the sunset definitely made up for the Karen of a day that we had! hahaha... Thanks so much for watching! Hope y'all are doing well!😊
The alarm on the beach is so dramatic.
At least you managed to get some time in the ocean.
The sunset looked really pretty from the pier. xx
Right?!? It felt very dramatic! Almost apocalyptic! Lol... We were thankful for even the small amount of beach time that we got. And yes, the sunset from the ferris wheel was beautiful! The perfect ending to a not-so perfect day! Thanks for watching!😊
Lot of memories over there. I miss Atlantic City.
Aww love to hear that! 💗 Thanks for sharing!
I was in Atlantic City in June. The wheel was definitely neat. Great view too.
Oh that's awesome!! The Wheel is really neat & like you said a great view!
You guys have had bad luck with rain here and providence, but it’s cool how you rolled with it and still had fun. Beach area looked beautiful. Good video guys!
Right?! The rain just seems to follow us sometimes! And it's tough when we only have one day in a city! But thank you... We did our best to make the most of it! Thanks so much for watching guys!😊
I love this video guys!!!! Life long Jersey guy here and this summer we’re doing out first overnight getaway to AC! AC gets too much hate lol It’s like a mini Las Vegas with a nice beach and a fun classic Jersey shore boardwalk and Pier! If you’re ever back in Jersey I’d recommend visiting Wildwood! It’s a huge family resort town about an hour more South from AC. It has one of the largest seaside amusement parks in the world with 3 piers and 8 roller coasters 🎢 as well as 3 water parks 😱 as well as a beautiful beach, the nicest in Jersey imo! Glad you enjoyed your AC trip 😊
Going next week for bday trip. Thanks for making this vid
Awesome! Hope you have an incredible time! Happy Birthday!
Awesome job guys...
Thanks so much!🥰
Those subs.... 🤤
Great video as always! Nat, Codie loves your glasses. Matt, I dig your shirt! Sorry y'all got rained on.... again. But glad it passed and y'all got to play in the ocean for a little bit! Blessings y'all!
Right?! They were really good! Aw... Thanks y'all! Yea, the weather doesn't always cooperate, but we do our best just to roll with it! Thanks for always watching!😊 Hope y'all are doing well!
When I was younger say early 80's I use to go every month. The last time was 2012 day before we left to go they got two feet of snow it was Super Bowl Weekend New England against the New York Giants unfortunately my team lost. We always try and make the best out of the hand that is dealt. Love the video as always
Wow, I bet you've seen it change a lot over the years! Haha... 2 feet of snow?! That's quite a different experience that we had! Lol... Thanks so much for watching!😊
I like the video I went to Atlantic city in 2010 and 2011 and I went on a broad walk befor it is very cool when you go for a walk is a full time state
Great video , 14: 50 place for me definitely. 😄😄
Thanks so much! Oh yeaaa... That place was great! Thanks for watching!😊
Lol 😂 the rain on the beach. I’ve never seen anyone kick us off the beach before! But then again I haven’t been to many beaches that have life guards/security. It’s like a beach chair revolution. 😂😂😂
Right?!? That just doesn't really happen where we're from! Lol... But we were glad to be a part of the beach chair revolution!😂😂 Thanks for watching!😊
There have been a bunch of people hit by lightening on the beach lately
Live about 2hrs away from AC. We go a lot! Have fun!!
It’s a fun time!!!
You must come back to NJ and experience all of the other amazing things here. Point Pleasant is way more your speed for a beach town!!
This is so funny!
Thanks for watching!😊
If you ever visit Monmouth County, NJ I bet you would want to raise your family there, Nothing but Vibrant Communities and Good Atmosphere
Times to remember I was ther long time ago
great video. we had a lifeguard in my town seaside park nj, 50 miles from atlantic city, struck by lightning. he did not survive. we take clearing the beach pretty seriously.
I'm from Florida (not saying that's a good thing haha) & I had never really seen it so serious before. Learned a lot! lol - Nat
Outstanding vlog dear
Thank you so much 😊
Good video nonetheless! Never been to Atlantic city but I been all over the Boston bay, Connecticut shoreline and New York!
I hear FLAGLER Beach doesn’t throw you off the beach!! 😂😂Also chairs and umbrellas are FREE 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️
Hahaha... Maybe we can make a visit there soon then!😊
I’m from Jersey. Next time try Long Beach Island (LBI), Belmar or Point Pleasant. Point is my fave beach. In Jersey you have to pay to get on the beach unfortunately. Coming here is still an experience for people.
Hey Gina! Thanks so much for the recommendations! We'll have to check it out when we're back in the area! Thanks for watching!😊
Remember the first time seeing LBI couldn’t believe a Jersey beach had dunes. Our daily beaches were Sea Bright & Manasquan. Otherwise we went out to Long Island. They had dunes 🌞
Yes to LBI!
North wildwood, NJ is free and the boardwalk has 3 piers!
I wish I could’ve saw y’all because I live in Pleasantville New Jersey
Sunset on the pier, in the wheel?! Great ending to a watery day. I think Natalie’s prayer did work tho. God gave you a little bit of extra beach time. 🙌 Thank you for taking us to Atlantic City with you. What was your favorite taffy flavor?
Loved it as always!! Maybe back home to Florida for a few beach days!! 😂😂😂😂. You guys are the BEST!!! 👍
Right?! Definitely a wonderful ending to that day! Lol... And I think you're right! Lol... Prayers work! As always, thanks for watching! Our favorite flavors were actually the ones we tried in the video... Mine was Blueberry and Nat's was the Watermelon!
This is an awesome vlog love Atlantic city I won $50 at the casino would of been $1000 but I take what I can get.
Love your vibe keep it up
Hahaha that’s awesome!! Better than what we did! Lol 😂 thanks so much girl! Appreciate you so much! 🥰💗 - Nat
Born & raised here in NJ. Never heard an alarm to get off the beach. AC wouldn't be my first choice but understand you were in Philly so it would be the closest beach area. The Hard Rock is one of the better hotels. Cape May is nice . Beaches I would go to are Point Pleasant - family beaches with a nicer boardwalk & Island Beach State Park - more natural beaches, dunes, quiet, good facilities to change.
Beautiful virtual tour of Jersey Shore, nice and interesting to see the beautiful streets there. It looks nice and friendly! I enjoyed the tour 😊👍👍 Im watching from India
Thanks so much for watching! 🥰🥰
DON'T DO THAT! You see that OCEAN casino? Originally the Revel. My boyfriend was a Union worker a part of building it. Whenever he left my home in the morning I'd say a silent prayer for him. You never know what could happen on those construction sites. When a storm comes in they take cover when possible till the storm passes. If it's going on most of the day the work day is over. There is a reason for that. That lightening is landing somewhere. So as much as those workers want to make money, they want to get home to their families more.
My boyfriend's co worker was not so lucky. He got struck by lightening on the Revel construction site. They had to pry him off of a concrete bucket and lay him on the ground like that. So just don't do it. You see that storm come in, just take cover. And it's not fair to hold up emergency workers on something that is preventable.
So sorry to hear that! I’m from Florida so I was shocked they cleared the beaches. They never do that in Florida & a hurricane could be coming! Lol that was all. Thanks so much for watching!
@@AdventuresofMattandNat and my childhood in Puerto Rico. The rain comes like someone opened the faucet for a few minutes and back to a sunny day. I loved playing in the rain but never if there is lightening.
Aww im
Frm Atlantic City was raised thre my 1st grde till high school fun day i moved to cali almst 10 years ago … but heart stays in AC
Aww… That’s awesome! Thanks so much for watching!🥰
LOL Nat was not leaving that beach no matter what! 😆
Hahaha... That's a true Florida girl for ya! Lol
@@AdventuresofMattandNat Haha that's fair!
I ate at the original White House Subs. It was bigger back in the day.
Dang… We really wanted to! Stupid rain! Lol… Thanks for watching!😊
Love Atlantic City! Definitely my favorite boardwalk in NJ, with OCNJ a close second. Looked like a fun trip!
Thanks so much for watching!😊 We definitely enjoyed our time in AC, even with the less than ideal weather! We've never been to OCNJ! We'll have to check it out!
What do you do for a living to travel so much? Does your CZcams channel pay for it all? Congratulations on 10k subs love your channel!
Heyyy!! We actually have other jobs that aren't remote which is why many of our trips are short and sweet! We go into more detail in our Q&A videos, but the shot answer is that CZcams doesn't pay for it all... Yet!😊 Thanks so much for watching!
Worked across the street from the White House original location on Arctic Avenue.
I posted a down the shore vlog bc u inspired me❤
Aww… That’s so awesome!! We’ll definitely check it out! Thanks for sharing!😊
I've never been to Atlantic City,I've only been to the more run down part of Jersey such as Newark.
Yea, that was pretty much our only experience with New Jersey before visiting AC as well. Not much to love about Newark... except the view of Manhattan when you're riding the train into the city! Haha... Thanks for watching!😊
Me too the run down cities such as Vineland and Camden.
my girlfriend liveing new jersey ❤️
we want to go explore
Yeaaa!! It was a great time! Even with the bad weather! Thanks for watching!😊
hi do they allow you to bring your own beach umbrella and chairs great video of atlantic city
Hi Ann! As far as we know, they do allow you to bring your own umbrella and chairs. Thanks so much for watching!
Dear Natalie,
I have watched your video from beginning to end without interruption and liked it very much. It's really very beautiful .
Thank you very much for your nice and fàntastic video.
With lots of love and regards,

Stay connected and stay blessed .
Stockton U freshman here; I've been robbed/jumped 4 times already in AC its genuine luck you guys made it thru the video congrats!
WATCHING FROM NORTHEAST INDIA ❤❤❤❤❤❤LOTS OF LOVE
Hey so next time can you go to Spring Lake Heights and it is a small town. Just to let you know there is a Spring Lake and Spring Lake Heights and they share the same zip code so just so you know that.
Awesome! Thanks so much for the recommendations! And thanks for watching!😊
PLEASE COME TO GULF SHORES BEACH, IN GULF SHORES ALABAMA... THANK ME LATER
Lol not gonna lie this was pretty entertaining. How far is Atlantic city from Philly? We were gonna make a trip over there and now I’m so bummed we couldn’t make it.
Aww love that you feel that way! That makes our day to hear! We did the train from Philly to Atlantic City & it was about an hour and a half. Pretty convenient! Totally recommend it! It was a fun time despite the rain! lol
@@AdventuresofMattandNat lol it looked like fun! 😊
I was going to say if you weren’t going to one of the gilchrists you were making a mistake lol
Haha… Glad to hear that we made the right choice! It was delicious for sure!🤤 Thanks for watching!
GOD YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.
We can’t get rain out here in California and everywhere you go it rains 😂
Maybe there’s were we go next! Haha 😂 ☔️
Should have gone to stone harbor
Is the heat worse than in the South? You know the humidity kills us here 😅
Umm no not really, during our walk.. there was no clouds or shade & I think we walked 2 miles & we were just dying! hahaha Girl, I feel you! I feel like it always hits me hard in the summer! lol
Should have gone to Cape May
We'll have to check it out next time! Thanks for watching!😊
So many more wonderful places to visit in NJ other than Atlantic City, it’s overrated and full of crime and the beaches are horrible! Stay safe
My Industrial arts teacher ACHS 1953Jesse Raiford invented Monopoly.
That young man is my cousin lol
Go to Ocean City, or Cape May, AC is nasty
We’ll have to check those out! Thanks
If you go to a Jersey beach you have to beach how we do.
How hot could it be it only gets to mid 80's during the July?
If you’ve ever been, then you know that mid 80’s feels more like mid 90’s or more with the humidity, direct sun, and heat reflecting off of the boardwalk! It was definitely a hot one that day! That was the one good thing about the rain… It cooled it down a lot! Thanks for watching!😊
What time of year did you go?
Hey Diane!! Thanks for watching, we always put when we filmed in the description. I think we went in July of 2021!
can we fly drone in AC?
You’ll need to download one of the FAA approved apps (www.faa.gov/uas/getting_started/b4ufly) and check the airspace restrictions first. And always check the local drone laws as well.
Hey peeps. What month is this video posted from?
Hey Will! This video was filmed in July. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!😊
what was the blurred creature crawling on the ferris wheel?
?? Not sure we noticed! Lol... There is a dirty spot on the window that appears to be moving along the ferris wheel arm at 18:22. Is that what you're referring to?
@@AdventuresofMattandNat ysp.... that makes sense now. thanks. I thought it was a rodent or something lol
there's a city in Florida Destin in Alabama Florida border they have little shops there and the ocean
👍🏼 Thanks for watching!
Ok gotta ask, what is “calling an audible” I don’t understand that lol
Haha… It’s a sports term that means to change plans at the last minute based on newly revealed information.
How can you come to NJ and not have PORK ROLL, egg and cheese for breakfast? That's what jinxed your beach day! LOL
🤷🏻♂️... Lol
You guys just have the worst luck when it comes to weather!!
You didn’t get any pictures of the cats.
DONT FORGET TO WATCH MY INDIA VLOGS
No Irish Pub ????....smh
I know!! I wish we’d had more time! And that the weather had been better! Thanks for watching though!😊
@@AdventuresofMattandNat no problem, highly entertained by your videos....def in my top rotation....
@@luisdel4059 Aw… Thank you so much! That means more than you know!😊
I hope they offered you a refund because it wasn’t your fault about the weather and they were being kind of rude. 😬
I wish! Unfortunately, all sales were final... regardless of the weather... or their attitudes! Lol... Thanks so much for watching!😊
@@AdventuresofMattandNat of course, I love exploring but I don’t drive or do the best with saving money lol. Also, if you have not already please go visit NYC because I’m curious and Bulgaria since I am originally from there! Also, I grew up in Indiana and saw your Indiana video which made me subscribe. M I’m sorry you didn’t have the best experience there! If you do consider revisiting please check out brown county, Indiana especially in the Fall!🧡🤎☺️😅
Nobody goes to Atlantic City and plays one cent on a slot machine, that's just strange.
🤣🤣
as a lifelong New Jerseyan, avoid Atlantic City at all costs
🤣🤣 we can understand that. Lol Any recommendations when we come back to New Jersey?!
@@AdventuresofMattandNat thanks for responding!! lol of course, if you’re looking for jersey shore spots, Long Beach Island and Cape May are the best in Jersey. Wildwood is good too. Im from South Jersey, right over the bridge from Philadelphia and I’m telling you, South Jersey has so many gems. I’ve been watching you guys videos and I love them! Cape May would definitely be up your guys alley, try Cape May brewery!
@@AdventuresofMattandNat I go to Rowan University in South Jersey also, Glassboro is a cool little college town to explore as well.
Hi looks like your having some fun your not showing us anything really !? Beach water is dirty show us the casinos food areas not food court withsamdwiches. Buffets restaurants did you go to Tropicana casino stay at Havana tower in03 room or suite in the ocean side. Ocean casino Bogotaa night clubs. in casinos ? All I see is your faces ? Good your having a good time 😘😀
Watching someone talking with gum in her widely open mouth is distracting and not appealing.
Haha 🙈🤣 That’s exactly what my mom always says! Sorry! 🙈🤷🏼♀️
Old Jersey shore town from a. Bygone era. Not worth seeing.
Omg go to LBI guys lol
