Fodor'sTravel has come out with a list of the 12 Best Boardwalks in America and ranked first was the Atlantic City Boardwalk.
The website says about the boardwalk, "Atlantic City's Boardwalk is internationally famous. It is said to be the world's first and longest boardwalk dating way back to 1870. The structure's original intent was to protect the nearby hotels from unruly ocean waves, but over time, as the boardwalk grew to its current length of 5.5 miles, it became an international entertainment hub."
The website also cited the casinos, entertainment and shopping venues, and amusement rides.
Long Beach Boardwalk on Long Island finished second, followed by Santa Monica Pier and Venice Beach Boardwalk in California.
