Are you seeking thrill? Consider these activities during your Delaware beach vacation
It can be hard to decide which of Delaware’s beaches is the perfect fit for your next trip, but now that one of the First State’s beach towns has been listed as a top small town in the United States for a summer vacation, the choice is much easier to make.
Top U.S. small town for a summer vacation in Delaware
Travel + Leisure, a travel magazine, compiled a list of 15 of the best U.S. small towns for a summer vacation, and Delaware favorite Dewey Beach made it among the ranks.
Dewey Beach has an ocean and a bay on either side of the town, which means there’s ample room for a classic beach day swimming and suntanning or an adventurous excursion on a charter boat. Not to mention tourist season provides plenty of summer events for families, adults of any age and any level of fun you’re looking for.
Travel + Leisure also cites Hyatt Place Dewey Beach as a coveted place to stay and shouts out Woody’s Dewey Beach as the place to dine if you want some of the best crab cakes around.
