Rehoboth Beach:
Rehoboth Beach, Delaware's largest and liveliest beach resort, which merges into Dewey Beach at its southern end. It attracts so many escapees from DC that it's known as the Nation's Summer Capital – more family oriented than other beach towns,It features a wooden boardwalk, one of the last on the east coast. It stretches along the Atlantic to either side of Rehoboth Avenue – it acts as the main drag, its four short blocks clogged with souvenir shoppers browsing though the usual array of T-shirts and seaside kitsch. Most of the restaurants and nightspots are concentrated here, with Thrashers French Fries stand and Dolles salt water taffy.It's a unique vacation spot where you can swim, bask in the sun, stroll the Boardwalk or walk in the Historic 'Pines', join the fun at numerous family oriented sport events and activities. The Town is anchored by the Bandstand and many wonderful shops and restaurants line the quaint streets.
