Rehoboth-Beach
is a small city of 1,556 located on the Atlantic Coast in Sussex County, Delaware. However, since it is a very popular regional resort destination, the population can swell to over 75,000 in the summertime. Rehoboth Beach has an interesting history. Founded in 1873 as the Rehoboth Beach Camp Meeting Association, it was a site for Methodist camp meetings. The Association disbanded in 1881 and in 1891, the community was incorporated as "Henlopen City, " and was renamed Rehoboth Beach shortly thereafter. Today, Rehoboth Beach is a beautiful seaside town that AARP Magazine named as one of the five "Best Places to Retire." Readers Digest also recognized the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk in its "Best of America" list. Rehoboth Beach is often billed as "The Nations Summer Capital" due to the frequent visitors from Washington D.C. The town is known for its mile-long boardwalk, outdoor activities, amusements and eclectic shops. The area provides a wide variety of accommodations, from cozy bed and breakfasts to fine hotels. Restaurants offer everything from fresh catch of the day to French cuisine. Rehoboth Beach is also home to several festivals, including the Rehoboth Beach Jazz Festival and the Sea Witch Festival. Nearby attractions include Cape Henlopen State Park, with its famous "walking" sand dunes, Delaware Seashore State Park and Fenwick Island State Park. Rehoboth Beach is only two hours from Washington D.C., Baltimore and Philadelphia.

Rehoboth Beach Weather & Climate
|
|
|
Southern Delaware's weather is greatly moderated by the Atlantic Ocean. The state is the second smallest in the U.S., only 96 miles long and 9 to 35 miles across. Most of it lies within the Atlantic Coastal Plain and the climate transitions between a humid subtropical climate and a continental climate. However, despite its small size, there are significant variations in temperature and amount of snowfall among the state's three counties. Sussex County, which includes the southeastern beach areas, has a somewhat milder climate and a longer growing season than the northern part of the state. Summers are warm with occasional thunderstorms and July is the hottest month of the year. Southeastern Delaware tends to have the highest temperatures and more precipitation than the center of the state, with an average precipitation of 46 inches. Rainfall is fairly evenly distributed throughout the year, although August is usually the wettest month. The whole state has mild winters because the mountains of Pennsylvania protect it from cold northwest winds. January, on average, has the coldest temperatures.
