Welcome

to the Beautiful Delaware Beaches

Come enjoy our picture-perfect beaches, charming towns and beautiful, rural landscapes any time of year.

From the sophisticated storefronts of Rehoboth to the laid-back boardwalk in Bethany Beach, this oceanfront area of southern Delaware truly has something for everybody. Explore historic villages, escape into the coastal forest for hiking and biking, or just find a spot on the sandy shores and while away the day listening to the waves roll in.

Of course, one of the most popular activities here is shopping, which has the distinction of being sales tax-free. Meander down the sidewalks of our quaint towns, stopping to browse for antiques, designer clothes, unique gifts, one-of-a-kind art and much, much more. Or head to our famous outlet malls, where good deals come standard.

From the southeastern-most tip of Fenwick Island to the point of Cape Henlopen State Park, the main attraction is the ocean. But as you venture inland, you will find museums, cultural events and festivals throughout the year, and exciting outdoor adventures. Explore inland bays on a kayak or sailboat, or try your hand at windsurfing or skim boarding on the Atlantic Ocean.

An artistic and eclectic community, this region is rich in cultural and arts organizations. Art galleries, symphony orchestras, theaters and comedy clubs come together to make the Delaware Beaches more than your average beach community. There is a wealth of exciting attractions, entertainment and nightlife, all with the beautiful sandy beaches as a backdrop.

All this, complemented by a growing restaurant scene full of intimate eateries and gourmet restaurants, and you have one of the mid-Atlantic’s favorite year-round destinations.
We invite you to take in all this region has to offer, from the sun-soaked beaches to the bustling sidewalks. On the next few pages, you’ll find all the best places to eat, play, stay and shop in the Delaware Beaches.
