Life Is... More Good-Natured Here
Southern Delaware is the perfect playground for outdoor adventurers. The natural beauty of the area is captivating. Our ocean beaches have consistently achieved
5-star ratings from the Natural Resources Defense Council.
WE SPARKLE! Surfing, skimboarding, beach sports and, of course, sunbathing are high on the list of activities for visitors.
CAPE HENLOPEN STATE PARK offers miles of beautiful hiking/biking trails that meander through coastal marshes, pine forests, and along ocean beaches. You’ll find a fishing pier, Frisbee golf, campgrounds, a nature center, cycling, hiking, and more.
Don’t miss the scenic GORDONS POND TRAIL that connects Rehoboth Beach with Lewes! This trail can’t be beat for pure, unspoiled coastal beauty.
TRAP POND STATE PARK, also with many beautiful trails, is a wetland forest and home to the northernmost natural stand of bald cypress trees in the U.S. Have you ever taken a pontoon boat tour of a cypress swamp? At night? You can do that here in Southern Delaware!
PRIME HOOK NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE draws hikers, photographers, and birders — we’re right smack in the middle of the Atlantic Flyway, so the birding is phenomenal.
The NANTICOKE RIVER in western Sussex County — the most pristine tributary of the Chesapeake Bay — provides countless opportunities for recreation and sightseeing too.
Love boating, sailing, kayaking, parasailing, skydiving, kiteboarding, stand-up paddleboarding, hiking, and biking? You’ll find all of that — and more — right here.
