Getting there is half the fun, right? Both Air Tran and Southwest Airlines offer non-stop flights from Fort Lauderdale to Baltimore and US Airways has non-stop to Philadelphia. During the summer months the town’s population of 1,500 explodes to over 50,000 people looking for a good time. But that’s not a bad thing it just means the boys dress a little better (you’ll see more Lacoste shirts and white bucks than Diesel shirts and sandals at the bars). Also, being so close to D.C., it does have that bit of conservatism and preppiness thrown in. Rehoboth beach is known for its wide beaches, tree lined streets and old houses. No, I’m not saying you need to take your family with you on your next vacation, but if you need to, Rehoboth is the answer to all your needs. At 10:00 they would all go back to the house and I would walk 2 blocks north to Baltimore Ave. I would spend the day with them at the beach, then we would all go into town for dinner and the carnival rides in the middle of Rehoboth. I remember the first time I went there with my family in 1994, my parents, 4 brothers, their wives, 6 kids and I. Today Rehoboth is a town with room for all, gay, straight, singles, couples and families, both gay and straight. A popular getaway for Washington D.C., Philadelphia, Baltimore as well as Jersey boys and girls for over 30 years, Rehoboth is known for its beaches, boardwalk, eclectic shops and a gay friendly town for a weekend getaway or longer.įounded in 1873 as a religious retreat for the Methodist Church, Rehoboth takes its name from the Bible, meaning “room for all.” Well I’m quite sure the founding fathers of Rehoboth didn’t know what that would entail more then a century later. However, if you have not been to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, then you are missing out on one of the finest lesbian and gay vacation spots in the country.Īlong with Provincetown and Fire Island, Rehoboth Beach is considered by many to be on of the gayest resort towns in the Mid Atlantic. You have done Fire Island, seen the sunsets in Key West, dashed around the dunes in Provincetown, and you believe you have done the entire summer experience on the East coast. Summer is half way over and you have not made any plans.
