We’re just a few days removed now from the fantastic July 4th holiday weekend. We certainly hope everyone had a great time celebrating Independence Day here in the coastal region.
But the Summer of 2021 rolls on this week with several more fantastic mid-year events planned at and near the Delaware and Maryland beaches.

Have a great few days everyone!
NOTE: We also wanted to mention that the popular Funland Amusement Park on the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk will no longer be requiring advance reservations effective Thursday, July 8, and will be reverting back to its long-time practice of selling individual tickets for all rides. Great news!
