PRESS RELEASE

              OCEAN SHORE HOLDING CO. REPORTS 1ST QUARTER EARNINGS

      Ocean City, New Jersey - April 25, 2007 - Ocean Shore Holding Co. (NASDAQ:
OSHC) today announced net income of $501,000 or $.06 per basic and diluted share
for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, as compared to $703,000 or $.08 per basic
and diluted share for the first quarter of 2006.

      Ocean Shore Holding Co. (the "Company") is the holding company for Ocean
City Home Bank (the "Bank"), a federal savings bank headquartered in Ocean City,
New Jersey. The Bank operates a total of eight full-service banking offices in
eastern New Jersey.

      "While we are pleased to report continued growth of the loan portfolio
funded primarily with core deposits, the current interest rate environment has
narrowed the available spreads resulting in lower net interest income," said
Steven E. Brady, President and CEO. "Although our earnings have been impacted by
this challenging environment, we continue to make progress in growing the Bank
and building our franchise."

TOTAL ASSETS AND DEPOSITS GROW

      Total assets grew $12.2 million, or 2.2%, to $574.5 million at March 31,
2007 from December 31, 2006. Loans receivable, net, grew $5.7 million, or 1.3%,
to $439.0 million on steady loan activity, while investment and mortgage-backed
securities remained unchanged at $68 million. Growth in real estate mortgage
loans of $9.3 million and commercial loans of $400,000 was offset by a decline
in consumer loans of $1.4 million and construction loans of $2.6 million.

      Deposits grew $11.5 million, or 2.8%, to $428.5 million at March 31, 2007
from December 31, 2006. The Company continued its focus on core deposits, which
increased $10.3 million, or 3.8%, to $277.2 million. Certificates of deposit
increased $1.2 million, or 0.8%, to $151.3 million at March 31, 2007 compared to
year-end 2006. Total borrowings remained virtually unchanged at $76.8 million at
quarter-end.

ASSET QUALITY REMAINS EXCELLENT

      The Company's asset quality continues to be excellent. Non-performing
assets totaled only $373,000 at March 31, 2007. The Company experienced no
charge-off activity for the first quarter of 2007, compared to $7,000 in the
same period last year. The allowance for loan losses was 0.48% of total loans at
March 31, 2007 compared to 0.47% at December 31, 2006 and 0.44% of total loans
at March 31, 2006.

NET INTEREST INCOME DECREASES OVER PRIOR PERIODS

      Net interest income decreased $200,000, or 4.2%, to $3.6 million for the
first quarter of 2007 compared to $3.8 million in the first quarter of 2006. Net
interest margin decreased 8 basis points in the quarter ended March 2007 to
2.79% versus 2.87% for the quarter ended December 2006 and 19 basis points from
2.98% for the quarter ended March 2006. The growth in interest income was the
result of an increase in average interest-earning assets of $12.2 million and an
increase of 31 basis points in the average yield to 5.92%. These increases were
offset by an increase in average interest bearing liabilities of $12.1 million
and an increase of 56 basis points in the average cost to 3.53%.

OTHER EXPENSES INCREASE

      Other expenses increased $200,000, or 6.4%, to $3.3 million for the first
quarter of 2007 compared to $3.1 million for the first quarter of 2006. Costs
associated with the November 2006 opening of a new branch represent $104,000 of
the increase while the remaining $96,000 increase in 2007 occurred through the
normal course of operation over the comparable period in 2006.
