Atlantic City is located on 8.1-mile-long Absecon Island, along with a few other shore towns – Ventnor, Margate and Longport to the South.
Atlantic City has a moderate climate and is considered a year-round destination. Winters tend to be mild to cold and Summers are warm and humid. Most people tend to visit during the months of June – August. However mild weather stays around well into October which we like to call “Local’s Summer” since the weather is warm for daytime activities and cool in the evening, along with less crowds.
On average the months of July and August are the hottest. Not only this, but these months are also the most humid, causing the temperatures to seem higher than the thermometer reads. The average high temperatures during these months will reach the upper 80’s during the daytime and drop to the mid 60’s during the nights. On average the coldest months of the year are January and February, during which time the high temperatures will usually be somewhere in the upper 30’s to lower 40’s, and the lows will drop to the upper teens and lower 20’s.
