This beach is quite lovely and has a relatively easy access point from the boardwalk. It is well-kept and clean, and there are plenty of benches available. During the morning hours in the off season, most of the shops were closed, but street parking was free and the locals are very friendly. Overall, it's a great spot for a leisurely walk.
We recently stayed in Lewes for a week and decided to take a short trip to Rehoboth to explore and do some shopping. Although my brother-in-law used to live in Rehoboth, he has been residing in Lewes for a few years now. The boardwalk in Rehoboth is pleasant and always bustling with both tourists and locals.
This beach is a serene and immaculate haven. It's perfect for bird enthusiasts as we spotted numerous Ospreys on the hunt. Additionally, it's a treasure trove for seashell collectors. We visited in the morning and found the facilities to be spotless, including the restrooms. However, it's important to note that there are no lifeguards on duty if you plan on taking a dip in the water.
This beach is a favorite of ours, with its tranquil bay waters and sandy shores. The lifeguards are exceptional, and the community is always willing to lend a hand, especially when my young child was stung by a jellyfish. A large mat anchored in the water was a source of endless fun for the children. We plan to visit this beach again and again. However, beware of the overzealous parking attendants, and it's best to arrive early or later in the day on weekends to secure a spot.
The beach is fantastic and well-maintained. It's not nearly as packed as Rehoboth beach, and some areas require a parking pass. However, my spouse and I discovered a metered spot that didn't necessitate a parking permit, and we only paid $11 for six hours. There are fewer people, making it a more peaceful and calming experience.
