Boardwalk Blues



The boardwalk, like most of Delaware, is an amazingly dynamic locale. In the summer (I usually avoid it), Hawaiian shirts and neon is pretty much the standard as far as  boardwalk fashion goes However, in the off-season I will travel down to the boards in my faux fur lined coat, hat, scarf, boots, the whole shebang, and without a doubt there will be a family frolicking in the wave break like it is the middle of July. The variety is pleasing.

Although it may look like somewhat of a ghost town, there are plenty of things to do.
For the bellalunatics with boardwalk blues, here are some ways to the turn Rehoboth anew.
  • Grab a slice of Louie’s before they close their doors for winter
  • Cocoa crawl, who can resist shopping, giveaways and desserts!
  • Rehoboth Beach Jazz Festival for all the jazz lovers out there. 
  • Dress warm and throw a Frisbee on the beach
  • Walk the boards. No crowds and good exercise!
  • End of season sales…they are everywhere.
  • See the snow on the beach; it’s peaceful scenery.
  • Film Festival. This takes place at Midway Movies but the flyers are posted all over town. 
  • Sip a hot coffee on the benches and watch the birds fly south. I recommend an azteca mocha from CafĂ© a Go-Go
  • Restaurant specials! Sushi night on Tuesdays at The Cultured Pearl (has live entertainment) or Stingray. Half-price Sandwich night on Wednesdays at Arena's. Haven't been, but excited to checkout Meatless Mondays at a(Muse).
  • The farmer's market in it's final weeks. Ends October 24th.
  • Holiday shopping at Bella Luna! Pickup a present for yourself as well. ☾

Fun, Fun. Until next time,
