The beach is popular for water sports such as skim boarding, windsurfing and catamaran sailing. Sunsets over the bay provide a romantic atmosphere and enhance the nightlife.
Located adjacent to Dewey Beach is the Delaware Seashore State Park, where you'll find a long stretch of natural beach that offers several areas for four-wheel vehicle access and surf fishing. A popular activity is treasure hunting on the beach with metal detectors.
During the summer, the Town of Dewey Beach sponsors family-friendly Movies on the Beach every Monday night and bonfires every Wednesday. For more information, see the town recreation schedule or calendar of activities.
