Naturalist's Notes
Delaware Seashore State Park
by Dorothy Sheehan, Delaware Seashore State Park Naturalist
Read Dorothy's bio.
Summer is a great time of year to enjoy Delaware Seashore State Park!
Whether you are fishing, swimming, sunbathing, kayaking or camping, it is hard not to enjoy a beautiful day at the beach. Make sure you check out our schedule of park programs during your next visit. From Kayaking the Rehoboth Bay to Ghost Crab Saunters and Crabbing 101, our summer schedule offers something for everyone.
Take a break from the mid-day heat to visit the Indian River Life-Saving Station Museum and learn about the surfmen whose job it was to rescue shipwreck survivors.
