Southern Delaware’s constellation of picturesque downtowns – all charming, yet each with its own distinct personality - are fabulous getaway destinations. From quaint B&Bs to luxury hotels, guests will find welcoming accommodations oceanfront, historic districts, charming seaside and riverside towns, and rural retreats.
Southern Delaware is largely agricultural, so our renowned Culinary Coast™ chefs use the freshest ingredients to create the most fabulous dining experiences in the Mid-Atlantic. Needless to say, our farmers’ markets are amazing and, in season, there’s at least one taking place every day of the week. That, in combination with our lucky abundance of breweries, wineries, and distilleries, is why Life Tastes Better Here.
