100_2402

There is no place like Dewey Beach during the summer at the Delaware Beaches.  It is a playground for both, the young, and the more matured…..having the Atlantic Ocean on one side of the road and the Bay on the other is “fun land”.

The town is very small and very casual.  Plenty of restaurants, bars, and entertainment once the summer season starts.  So, what’s going on?

It seems that this coming week-end is the official opening of Dewey Beach.  If you are visiting us at the Delaware Beaches we hope you have an amazing time.  Shop local, eat local….stay awhile!

Friday, April 11th – Sunday, April 13th – GREYHOUNDS – SPRINGTIME FOR GREYHOUNDS IN DEWEY BEACH – Spring Dewey is small and friendly.  Join a bunch of beautiful greyhounds for a relaxed week-end of uncrowded beaches, low-key activities.  For more information, please visit http://www.deweyspring.info.
