Southern Delaware, Blue Skies, Cool Temperatures, Delaware Beaches, Hello Spring!!
Were you at the Delaware Beaches today? Gorgeous, wasn’t it? I was driving from Bethany Beach to Rehoboth Beach and I was thinking….how lucky if this road was your commute every single day. It was for my husband. No traffic, the Atlantic Ocean on one side and the Bay on the other.
The beautiful Indian River Bridge was bright today. Have you seen in the evening?
Going through it and looking at the expansive views, is a scenery I love and never get tired of looking.
So many events and fun things to do while vacationing at the Delaware Beaches. I live here and have not done it all. Being on the beach is just the beginning….
FORT MILES was built in 1941. This coastal fortification defended assets along the Delaware River and Bay such as oil refineries and factories, as well. More info? Please visit http://www.fortmiles.org. The Fort Miles Historical Association is supporting this site; it is a nonprofit group that is preserving, protecting and defending all aspects of Fort Miles. More info? Please visit http://www.fortmilesha.org. Discover Battery 519 on the 3rd Saturday of every month. Tours start at 10:30 a.m., Noon and 1:30 p.m. Call 302-645-0852 for more info.
DOGFISH HEAD has tours available Monday through Saturday. The brewery is located at #6 Cannery Village Center in Milton, Delaware. Tel. 302-684-1000. This tour is worth going to. So much fun and very informative. You can also have a bite to eat while touring. BunYan’s Lunchbox has beer infused brats, chowder and pickles. Grab a brew and enjoy a little tasting.

DINING DESTINATION….Southern Delaware is a dining destination. From the Boardwalk Grub to five star gourmet dining. Plenty of farmers’ markets give us the best…farm to table, always eating local.

REHOBOTH BEACH MUSEUM….I always say that this is a starting point whether you have been visiting Rehoboth Beach for years or your first time. It is located at 511 Rehoboth Avenue by thye roundabout as you enter Rehoboth Beach, right by the Rehoboth Beach Chamber of Commerce and the Visitor’s Center. Telephone 302-227-7310. Check the exhibits by visiting http://www.rehobothbeachmuseum.org. It is a very friendly museum….your kids would like it, as well.
As much as I love the ocean, I really have come to enjoy the bay so much. Late afternoons just to sit on a beach chair, it is so relaxing.
On the Bay the sunsets are awesome!! Spring is around the corner….it is in the air. Have a good one.
