Features and Amenities

Area Overview - Rehoboth Beach

Located just two hours from Washington, Baltimore and Philadelphia, Rehoboth offers beautiful beaches and small-town character combined with great dining, nonstop nightlife and terrific shopping at over 140 tax-free outlet stores. In addition to the sun, sand and surf, sports-minded visitors will find hiking, windsurfing, kayaking and deep-sea fishing available at the Broadkill Beach area. Serious golfers can test their skills at the Kings Creek Country Club or at one of the many other 18-hole courses nearby.

No stay would be complete without a stroll along the mile-long wooden boardwalk (circa 1873). Among the last of its kind on the east coast, the Rehoboth Beach boardwalk was named Best of America by “Readers Digest” in May 2006. Perfect for sitting, jogging, biking or old-fashioned family fun at the many arcades and amusements, the boardwalk stretches along the ocean on either side of Rehoboth Avenue. “The Avenue” acts as the town’s colorful main drag, where you’ll find souvenir and t-shirt shops, upscale boutiques, and galleries in abundance. Many of the area’s more than 70 restaurants and nightspots are located here too. Thrashers (famous) French Fries stands, burger huts and pizzerias mix among the Caribbean-style cafes, Mexican restaurants and gourmet dining spots. After dark, the action shifts to the club scene with something for every age and taste.

A traditional vacation spot for families, Delaware’s largest and liveliest beach also has become a favorite among gay and lesbian travelers. More than just a summer destination, Rehoboth plays host to numerous annual off-season festivals, including the Autumn Jazz Festival, the Chocolate Festival, and the Rehoboth Film Festival in November, which screens about 100 of the year's best independent films.
