Bikini Beach Bar, Atlantic City

After navigating treacherous shore traffic, sometimes the only place to cool off road rage is the beach itself. Breathe in that salty air at the Trump Plaza Beach Bar: a hop, skip, and jump across from the Trump Plaza. Stroll over the winding boardwalk entrance and you'll find yourself on a huge deck, surrounded by surf and sand. Looking for a new take on live music? A classic rock Battle of the Bands competition commences every Thursday, while Wednesdays belong to Rock Idol Live Karaoke Night. Attention-starved contestants can broadcast their vocal chords on the radio while accompanied by a live band.
