Delaware Beaches Travel Guide: Reviews, photos, & videos
From an outsider’s perspective, Delaware is not known for its beaches. However, one trip down Route 1, with the windows down and the salt tinged breeze providing the perfect accent to the golden oldies blaring from the car stereo, and all that changes. See, the Delaware coastline is stacked to the brim with gorgeous beach after gorgeous beach all with perfect white sand and gorgeous blue Atlantic surf. In fact the Delaware Beaches are practically a vacation mecca for work weary Washingtonians, many of whom own some pricey Delaware Beach vacation homes. Start down at the south end in Ocean City, Maryland and enjoy the ten mile long peninsula that lures thousands of party loving college students every spring break and summer. Enjoy the breathtaking ocean views from Ocean City condo rentals for a relaxing weekend getaway. Cruise north to Dewey Beach – a wild and crazy party town that’s relatively cheap considering the low priced Dewey Beach house rentals and house shares for the younger, more cash strapped crowd. Save that money for the nightlife we say!
In fact, many people – young and old – flock to this party town for the Dewey Beach Concerts and Festival which lures in numerous big name music acts year round to partake in the countless festivals ranging from the Americana Music Fest, Chickfest, Jamfest, Popfest and the Delaware Musical Festival. Then cruise over to Rehoboth Beach and Bethany Beach, two beaches that appeal more to the family crowd and are perfect for those vacationers who have recently graduated college and are looking to settle down. With a bevy of Rehoboth beach rentals and Bethany beach vacation rentals, these two Delaware beach towns are ideal spots to spend family time during summer. And while you’re in Rehoboth, take a leisurely stroll down Rehoboth Avenue to enjoy some delicious food and local flavor. Then venture over to Silver Lake for a bit of serene Delaware scenery as well as some bird watching opportunities. For the quietest and furthest north, head to historical Lewes to experience "Williamsburg-on-the-beach." With plenty of resort communities to choose from, these four (Rehoboth, Bethany, Fenwick Island and Lewes) Delaware beaches are perfect for the sprite retiree looking to settle down in the glorious twilight years or for families. So take a drive down the Delaware Coastline and make a few stops along the way. The Delaware beaches are truly a diverse and unique beach going experience that appeals to every type of person.
