Delaware Information

Delaware may be small, but more fun and excitement is packed into the state's 1,982 square miles than larger states. With history that spans to pre-colonial days (Delaware was the first state) to the 98 miles of beautiful coastline that borders the Atlantic, Delaware is full of hidden gems. For instance, shopping is a must, as Delaware has no sales tax! Furthermore, places like Rehoboth Outlets contain 140 brand-name factory-direct stores. As for beaches, Delaware has a surprising abundance of them, from the watersport-centered Dewey Beach, to the family-friendly Bethany Beach and laid-back Fenwick Island. Additionally, Delaware's beaches were ranked among the cleanest in the nation by the Clean Beaches Council, a prestigious title considering the sheer amount of coastline in the United States.
