What’s Going On? Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, Activities, Events, Entertainment, Delaware Beaches
When looking for information regarding what’s going on at the Delaware Beaches, I look for activities, events and entertainment that really interest me. There is so much going on. If you really put your mind to it and your fingers to your computer or telephone keys you can probably find the same info. I am just trying to make it a little easier for the visitors to find them, highlighting some of the fun things at our beaches. Busy little towns, we are!!
Some of the events are for this week-end; others, you might want to come back for.
