About Delaware Seashore State Park

2,722 acres of land sit between the Atlantic Ocean on one side and Rehoboth Bay and Indian River Bay on the other, giving the park shoreline on both an ocean coast and inland bay waters. This stretch near Dewey Beach draws large numbers of visitors for activities tied to that water, on both the surf side and the calmer bay side.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
