The past few years we ve gone in December and we ve had a lot of fun. The attractions on the boardwalk are closed, for the most part, but the casinos are still there. There s also lots of shopping, you can see an IMAX movie (at the Tropicana), some of the casinos have shows in the evening.
Atlantic City doesn t have attractions - it has casinos and that s it. There s really no reason to go there other than gambling. There is a beach there, but there are nicer, less crowded beaches elsewhere in the area, and it will be too cold for the beach in November anyway. There are some shows, but they are much inferior to Vegas shows. My recommendation for a young couple is (1) if you don t like gambling, then don t go at all, and (2) if you like to gamble, then go to the Borgata, which has the best nightlife of any of the casinos.
It will be cold so do bring a warm/winter coat. AC is gambling. If you do not wish to gamble, there are hotel amenities such has pool, gym and spa. At night there are clubs and shows. You may have to check http://www.atlanticcity.com/shows.htm for the list of performers. Of course, there are the restaurants.On the assumption there is no car and no plans to rent one. You can take mass transit (bus) to NYC. Do a day trip to Manhattan.
You re coming to the northeast the last weekend in November, of course it s going to be cold. then again, AC is not exactly big on outside attractions. they want you inside spending your money. Also any recomendation for a young couple to do? define young.
If you re going to the casinos, then yeah, AC is worth visiting in November. And yes it going to be cold in late November.Good luck
