Atlantic City, New Jersey casinos: fixed locations and documented straight-line distances

Atlantic City, New Jersey casinos: fixed locations and documented straight-line distances

e
editor
A location-first guide to documented casino venues around Atlantic City, with straight-line mileage only, city placement, and what to verify before setting out.

From Atlantic City, the documented straight-line distances are 0.4 miles to Showboat, 0.6 miles to Ocean Casino, 59.3 miles to Parx, 60.4 miles to Bally's Dover, 68.9 miles to Harrington, 70.4 miles to Delaware Park, 73.2 miles to Valley Forge, 80.3 miles to Ocean Downs, and 99.7 miles to both Wind Creek and Bethlehem; every figure in this sentence is straight-line. Road distance is longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.

This topic is best read as a geography guide, not a route planner. The keyword asks about casinos in Atlantic City, New Jersey, but the publicly published reference sources available here document Atlantic City as a fixed point plus a set of venue-to-city distance pairs, not a complete live inventory of every casino property in the city.

Atlantic City's fixed position

Atlantic City is documented here at latitude 39.3625 and longitude -74.425, in New Jersey. That fixed coordinate is the anchor point for every distance figure in this article.

The file documents 318 venue pairs measured to this city, but it is not a census of all casinos in Atlantic City or New Jersey. If you need a complete current list rather than the documented venue pairs shown here, the right place to confirm that is the relevant state or tribal gaming regulator.

Documented straight-line distances from Atlantic City

The table below lists every venue-to-Atlantic City pair documented for this query. The measurement type is great-circle throughout, which means a straight line over the earth's surface rather than a road route.

Why straight-line distance and real travel differ

A straight-line figure answers one narrow question: how far apart two fixed coordinates are without regard to roads. It is useful for orientation, for comparing relative closeness, and for seeing whether a venue is in the same city, in another part of the state, or across a state line.

It does not tell you what your actual trip will look like. Real travel becomes longer because roads bend around water, follow the available street network, and may require detours created by bridges, one-way systems, or indirect approaches into dense urban areas.

Cross-state travel can also add routing complexity even when the straight-line distance looks simple on a map. A venue may sit west, south, or north of Atlantic City in straight-line terms, but the road network you can legally and practically use may not follow that direct bearing.

Where the documented venues sit relative to Atlantic City

Two documented venues in this set are in Atlantic City itself: Showboat and Ocean Casino, both in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Their straight-line distances to the city reference point are 0.4 miles and 0.6 miles respectively, which tells you they are essentially city-center reference pairs rather than out-of-town comparisons.

Atlantic City's documented coordinate is east of Parx in Bensalem, Pennsylvania, because Atlantic City's longitude of -74.425 is less negative than Parx's longitude of -74.953. Atlantic City is also south of Parx because 39.3625 is lower than 40.1186 in latitude, so Parx lies to the northwest of Atlantic City in regional terms.

Atlantic City is east of Bally's Dover and Harrington as well, since both Delaware venues have more negative longitudes than Atlantic City's. It is north of both Bally's Dover and Harrington because their latitudes, 39.189201 and 38.915, are lower than 39.3625, placing those two venues to the southwest of Atlantic City.

This kind of coordinate reading is useful when you want a factual sense of regional placement without pretending to know the road route. It tells you how Atlantic City relates to documented venues in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware, while staying within what the published figures can support.

About the Atlantic City venues named in this file

Because the keyword is broad, no single primary venue is identified here. What can be said neutrally is that the documented Atlantic City venues in this set include Showboat and Ocean Casino, both in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

Showboat is documented at latitude 39.36166667 and longitude -74.41805556, with a documented reopened date of 2016 and a documented owner reference to developer Bart Blatstein. Ocean Casino is documented at latitude 39.36175 and longitude -74.41349722, with publicly published reference figures of 2,500 slot machines, 1,900 hotel rooms, 130,000 square feet of gaming space, 120 table games, and an opening date recorded here as April 2, 2012; figures like these describe a documented point in time and can change with rebuilds or reconfiguration.

The related query mentioning Borgata cannot be answered with a venue-specific distance or coordinate in this article, because no Borgata row appears in the documented venue set available here. The honest answer is therefore limited: this article can place Atlantic City itself and list the venue pairs that are documented, but it cannot measure Borgata-to-Atlantic City or publish Borgata-specific location details from this source set.

How to use these figures if your own starting point is different

The venue location is fixed; your location is not. If you are searching from somewhere else, the right method is to use the documented city coordinate for Atlantic City, 39.3625, -74.425, and compare it with your own starting point in a mapping tool that can calculate from your exact location.

That matters because phrases like near me, from here, or from my location have no stable reference inside a static article. A city-based guide can only give you fixed points and documented straight-line pairs; your personal route, mileage, and travel time must be measured from your own live position.

If the place you care about is one of the venues listed in the table, you can at least use the great-circle figure as a baseline for relative closeness. If it is not in the table, this article cannot measure that pair and should not guess.

What to confirm before you go

Before spending money on a trip, confirm the live details that this kind of static geography article should not freeze in print. That includes the venue's current operating status, parking arrangements, hotel availability, event schedules, age or entry policies where relevant, and any on-site amenity details.

The authoritative current answer lives on the property's own official contact and visitor channels, such as its location page, booking page, event page, or guest services desk. For a complete current list of casinos in the jurisdiction rather than only the documented venues named here, check the relevant gaming regulator as well.

One common point of confusion is treating a straight-line number as if it were a road number. Use the table here for orientation only, then verify the real route on a current map before you set out.

FAQ

How far are Atlantic City casinos from the city center?

In the documented pairs available here, Showboat is 0.4 miles straight-line from the Atlantic City reference point and Ocean Casino is 0.6 miles straight-line. Those are great-circle figures only. They are useful for showing that both venues are in Atlantic City, New Jersey, but they are not road mileage and should not be read as a walking or driving route.

Can this article tell me the distance to Borgata in Atlantic City, New Jersey?

No. The related search term mentions Borgata, but this article can only publish venue pairs that are documented in the available public reference set, and Borgata is not one of those rows here. The safe way to proceed is to use Atlantic City's documented coordinate and verify Borgata's current official location details through the property's own channels or a current map.

Why do some out-of-town venues look close in miles but still require more travel than expected?

Because the figures here are great-circle distances. Real trips follow the road network, not a straight line, and road layouts can be shaped by water crossings, indirect street patterns, and cross-state routing. That is why this article labels every mileage figure as straight-line and does not publish driving distance or travel time.
