High Tech Hideaway's Guide to Delaware Beaches
Beach
Originally a military base that was used to defend the east coast of the United States from German submarines, Cape Henlopen State Park offers the best beaches. The parking is included with park admission, and is plentiful. There is food and you can bring in your own. The sand is well maintained, and there is enough space to spread out and grab your own piece of paradise. This is where the locals go.

If the state park is not your scene and you need something more lively, Rehoboth Beach's actual beach is perfect. While it can get crowded, it's justified. The boardwalk is one of the best in America. There are many, many dining options. The sand is well kept. Be sure to bring chairs and the umbrella in the closet as you'll need them. Be mindful of parking -- if you can find a spot, the meters are watched over by local traffic enforcement.

High Tech Hideaway is the same distance from Rehoboth Beach as it is to Lewes Beach. While Rehoboth Beach has Rehoboth Avenue and a sprawling commercial scene, Lewes is definitely more subdued. Parking here is metered as well. Much definitely more quiet and with a great view of ships passing the waterway to Cape May, NJ.

Dewey Beach offers some breathtaking scenic views. Parking is difficult to come by, but if you can find a spot, is well worth it. In the summer time, the beach turns to a younger scene with a lot of high school and college kids. If you like to party on the beach, this is where you want to be.

Some say that Bethany Beach is "mini-Rehoboth Beach". While the boardwalk area does have some striking similarities, Bethany has its own identity with some great shops, restaurants, and beach. There is definitely a very family-friendly scene in Bethany. If you make the trip, be sure to plan for traffic.
