Surf Stadium is a 5,500-seat baseball stadium in Atlantic City, New Jersey, that opened in 1998 and is now the home stadium of the Atlantic Cape Community College Buccaneers baseball team. The stadium was called The Sandcastle until 2006, and has continued to be referred to by that name in some sources.[1][2] It was built as the home of the Atlantic City Surf baseball team, which discontinued operations prior to the 2009 season. Renovations were performed in 2011 and 2012.[3] The stadium was officially renamed as Surf Stadium in April 2012, and hosted a few events in 2012.[1] College and youth[3] teams have also used the stadium, and a music concert was held there in 2011.
The stadium is located on Albany Avenue, near the eastern terminus of U.S. Routes 40 and 322 and several blocks inland from the Boardwalk and casino strip. The casinos are visible from the seating areas.
Seating is in two primary sections, split by a "cross aisle". Luxury boxes are located above the main seating bowl.
