Haven't been to ACY in years (ACY - airport code for Atlantic City), so my information is rather outta date.

Boardwalk's a decent walk, though I dunno about the beaches - this time o' year it's probably cold. Avoid going off the beaten path away from the Boardwalk - there's still some areas that are pretty seedy in Atlantic City.

Unlike Vegas, where almost everything is somewhat subsidized by gaming, ACY isn't as much, and show tickets can be pricey.

If you wanna gamble, table game limits are high on weekends (though what's nice is the NJ Casino Control Commission (NJCCC) rule that requires all table games to post a notice ahead of time when table minimums increase). Lotsa tourists playing the slots and video poker, so it's gonna be crowded as all get-out.
