Overview
Dewey Beach is Delaware's liveliest beach town, a narrow strip between the ocean and Rehoboth Bay, known for its beach bars and live music along Coastal Highway. The Rehoboth Beach Life-Saving Station replica, built in 1988, stands as a local landmark. Lifeguarded beaches, bay-side dining, and a young summer crowd define the town.
