5 hours puts you in Ocean City, MD or Washington, DC. Neither place will have much going on in February. Better bet would be a cruise out of NYC.
Funny - I was going to make those two Suggestions - maybe add Rehoboth Beach - all are Fun and Have a LOT GOING ON.
DC is never boring - in a lifetime of living near and visiting often we still go and still enjoy and Discover.
The Beach has become a year round destination - lot fewer people but you will still likely need reservations to get a Campsite - I'd look at Indian River Inlet in Delaware - right across from the Beach and close to both Rehobothe and OC - :)
We all see things differently - if you want to go go go DC might work if you want to sit back relax and maybe catch a good meal the Beach would work.
Best of luck, let us know what you decide.
I don't think you'll need a reservation in February. February is still very much winter in the Delmarva. Going to the Delmarva beaches is not my idea of fun in Feb. lots of attractions are closed
The DC attractions still go on but most of those are indoors anyway.
Spend a few more hours driving and the OP can make it to luke warm temps.
