It was a great beach. The sand was clean and water was nice, big waves too. Crowd was pleasant. Overall, a great beach. I would definitely visit again!
I had a wonderful experience at the beach, but it gets very crowded. The beach has beautiful white sand and area attractions, but you have to get there early (10-11am) for a nice spot or you will end up in the back (50 yards from the water). If you visit Rehoboth, I recommend waking up early and checking out the sunrise.
Yes it's commercial, it's ocean front property, how could it not be but it's not as relentless as it's neighbor to the south, Ocean City, Md. The narrow sloping beach ( unreconstructed in a natural state rather than sculpted by teams of bulldozers) makes the experience more enjoyable rather than the vast lots o'beach down in Ocean City with similar shops as the MD resort.
Our favorite go to beach! Very clean and family oriented. Love all the quaint shops and restaurants. The mornings are beautiful as well as the evenings. We go summer, fall and spring
Great beach! We really appreciated that this is a no smoking beach as we have been to some before where it seems like you're walking on as many cigarette butts as grains of sand but this was not like that. Admittedly, we went in winter, but there were no crowds to contend with. The place was simply ideal for a quick Valentine's Day getaway.
Our first visit to Delaware and we stayed up state, before we headed back to the Midwest our family insisted we take the couple hour drive out of the way and drive down to Rehoboth beach for an afternoon visit before our drive home! We absolutely loved our visit! We will be back for a longer stay! So worth driving over 3 hours round trip out of our way!! Sun, sand, waves crashing, beautiful shores, absolutely perfect!
Visiting Rehoboth Beach in the off season is my favorite time of year. Less crowds, easy to drive around, no wait for seating in restaurants and shop owners have time to chat.
We went on Dec 1, on a beautiful day (over 70 degrees F), with three over-eighty family members. Some of us walked on the beach and some of us walked on the boardwalk -- there was something for everyone. We got food and beverages and ate outside. It was a lovely day and not crowded. I would definitely go back.
Rehoboth has a terrific beach, even in the winter. I am not a beach person so I prefer the beach during the off-season. It was the first really nice day in a while so there were lots of people on the beach. Children were playing in both the sand and the snow. The beach is beautiful when there is some snow on it. It is a great just to take a walk along the beach any time of the year.
