Before you leave your Rehoboth Beach vacation rental to explore the town, you should learn all about the city's history at the Rehoboth Beach Museum. Rotating exhibits delve into the past, highlighting such unique items as vintage bathing suits, post cards, and photos. If you're looking for attractions geared toward little ones, Funland is a small boardwalk amusement park with carnival rides, midway games, and all kinds of sweet and fried foods. Lake Gerar Park, a nearby 15-acre park, caters to the whole family with its trails, playgrounds, gardens, sprawling lawns, and freshwater lake equipped with a fishing pier.
The mile-long beachfront boardwalk is one of the city's most beloved destinations. Spend a leisurely afternoon strolling the walkway, pausing to enjoy its restaurants, shops, and the Rehoboth Beach Bandstand, which presents free entertainment throughout the year, including a popular summer concert series. Looking to cool off? Delaware Seashore State Park offers an array of water-based activities, including swimming and surfing. The town shows off its artistic side with the annual Rehoboth Beach Independent Film Festival and the Rehoboth Beach Autumn Jazz Festival. Weekly farmers' markets are held in Grove Park from May through October.
It might be known for its beaches, but Rehoboth Beach gets downright cold in the winter when temperatures can drop below freezing. Don't be surprised if a thick layer of snow also covers the sandy shores, as the beach town gets about 11 inches annually. If you book a Rehoboth Beach vacation rental during the summer, however, you'll spend your time outdoors soaking up the sunshine and high 80-degree temperatures. Spring and fall offer mild conditions with highs in the 60s and 70s. Keep your umbrella handy year-round in the rain-soaked city, particularly from July through September, the wettest period.
Sandy beaches and ocean waters may be Rehoboth Beach's biggest draw, but you'll find waterways all over the swampy region. The city lies on a narrow strip of land, with canals to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east, while bays, rivers, lakes, and ponds dot the rest of the landscape. The wetlands also play host to islands, some of which have hiking trails. Avid birdwatchers will spot a wide variety of shorebirds, such as ospreys, geese, ducks, and loons throughout the area, while fisherman can cast a line into waters teeming with tuna and sea bass.
