Delaware manages to pack a lot (including space to stretch out) in its 25 miles of Atlantic-facing shoreline. Each beach community has its own personality, while three state parks with both ocean and bay frontage provide abundant spots for cycling, water sports and nature exploration.
Not only is this a great destination for anyone seeking a summer beach vacation, but the compact nature of the location also makes it a terrific spot for families with diverse interests.
Beach towns: Each with their own personality
Lewes
Lovers of history will appreciate the town of Lewes (pronounced “Lew-iss”), billed as “the first town in the first state.” Founded in 1631 as a Dutch colony, Lewes is situated where the Delaware Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean at Cape Henlopen.
