Aimee's Guidebook
Beach/Boardwalk/Family
There are many beaches in the area, with state beaches typically being the least busy but requires payment ~$10 per visit. We buy the out-of-state annual Delaware state park pass ~$70 as it is usable beyond the beach.
Boardwalks include Bethany (close/quiet), Rehobeth (Family oriented), and Ocean City (biggest and busiest)
Beach boardwalk is a must see/do during your visit. Lots of food, games and some rides.
The Rehoboth Beach boardwalk is a must see/do during your visit. Lots of food, games and some rides.

Grottos pizza is a Delaware beach ‘must have’. Close enough to our place you can pick up and bring back (or have delivered)and the food will still be hot, but always better in the restaurant (there are lots and lots of locations, including on the Rehoboth Beach boardwalk), so opportunities galore to ‘experience’ grottos pizza (hot wings are good too).

Have only had breakfast here so far, but always extremely good flavor and portion sizes have been large (leftovers). Might be a bit pricey for a large group. Also, you eat in a train car, so a little neat twist.
