Rehoboth/Dewey Chamber of Commerce
Rehoboth Beach Bandstand Schedule - Right next to the boardwalk on Rehoboth Avenue. A perfect ending to a day at the beach with your kids. Grab a soft serve ice cream or some Thrasher's Fries and settle in for some rollicking good live music. (Bring your jacket -sometimes it's a bit breezy in the evening).
Mosaic Rehoboth - a small band of Rehoboth Beach gallery owners got together to form this collective. They host "Second Saturdays" with receptions at each gallery from 6 to 9 pm on the second Saturday of each month.
Dewey Beach
Continuing south, Dewey Beach is known for its friendly beaches and "laid back" lifestyle. Bay sports and a bustling nightlife are a big draw to this small coastal hot spot. Traveling further south, you'll find "The Quiet Resorts" of Bethany Beach and Fenwick Island. These tranquil seaside towns are best described by the relaxing family atmosphere, which is enjoyed by year 'round residents and visitors alike.
