Beach Access:
The beach is one mile from our house. Rental includes 2 Bethany Beach parking passes that permit FREE and UNLIMITED parking on any residential street in Bethany Beach, including the blocks by the beach. The permit is not valid at parking meters. Additionally, the town provides a beach shuttle trolley that runs through our neighborhood 2 times per hour and costs 25 cents. Just flag it down in front of the house. Another alternative is biking. Bring your own or rent one (2 locations in town, one within walking distance of the house). The main road between our house and the beach has a bike lane and, of course, the terrain is flat. It is an easy walk for adults, not so much for young children.
Beach Replenishment:
Rebuilding the beach and the dunes is underway and will be completed this winter (2008). This major project will add 150 feet of beach for your enjoyment, as well as fortify the dunes against future storms. So grab your chair and Hit The Beach!
Our Community - Turtle Walk:
Turtle Walk is a quiet residential community of custom homes with many year-round residents. All parking is off-street. There is no through traffic making our streets perfect for a leisurely stroll, bike, jog, etc. There is no pool or tennis in the community. There are 2 fitness clubs, golf, and tennis nearby. Ocean City and Rehoboth Beach have water parks. The town has a boardwalk, community center, frequent free concerts at the bandstand, volleyball courts, great shops and restaurants, plus a miniature golf course.
