Protecting the Island Community

The Ocean City Police Department (OCPD) serves as the primary law enforcement agency for Ocean City, New Jersey. Tasked with protecting residents, visitors, and seasonal guests, the department plays a critical role in maintaining safety across the barrier island community.

Ocean City’s unique geography — surrounded by water and heavily populated during the summer months — presents challenges distinct from inland municipalities. The Police Department operates year-round but significantly expands its staffing and operations during peak tourism season.
