Lucy the Elephant in Atlantic City

Lucy the Elephant is the oldest roadside attraction in America, a 6-story, one-of-a-kind monument and designated historical site in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Designed most similarly to an Asian elephant, Lucy the Elephant is more commonly referred to as female despite having male-only tusks.

To go inside the elephant and up to its observation deck, you'll need to purchase admission tickets for a guided tour, where you'll get unique views of Atlantic City’s skyline, the beach, the area now known as Margate City, and the Atlantic Ocean. Viewing of the novelty structure usually takes less than an hour, with tours occurring approximately every half hour.
