The Angola by the Bay community gives you plenty to do and explore with a summer pool, tennis courts, crab docks, kayak launch, playground, and marina/boat launch (ask us about bringing your boat as a guest to the boat launch). The community is on Herring Creek from which one can access the Rehoboth Bay by boat.
Recently the community trails committee has been mapping and marking the many trails in the community for easy walks in nature within steps of our One Particular Harbor. These trails offer a quiet respite from the busyness of the summer season.
We see egrets, hear hoot owls, feel the splash of water against our kayak on the creek, inhale the fresh air. It's a beautiful place in every "sense."
In the vicinity are all the water sports one could ask for, paddleboard rentals, sightseeing and fishing excursions, skim boarding, or just splashing at the edge of the calmer Delaware Bay while watching the glorious sunset. We love going to the summer Wednesday night family-friendly bonfires in Dewey Beach (bring marshmallows!). And we have spent a small fortune to win a stuffed animal at Funland on the Boardwalk in Rehoboth Beach - plus there are rides there suitable for ages 2-99.
Our favorite activity? The beach! So many possibilities:
1) Cape Henlopen (CHSP) offers sunsets at The Point (go at low tide if you can), the natural setting at the lifeguarded Ocean Beach/CHSP, and surfing at CHSP Herring Point (or watching surfers).
2) Rehoboth Beach offers plenty of activity on the Boardwalk: Funland, arcades, mini-golf, shopping, and boardwalk walk-up to order food (amazing restaurants too), plus some of the best lifeguards on the planet!
3) Dewey Beach is known for a lively night life, but the beach and fabulous restaurants are why we like go. Lifeguards! Note: there are no public bathrooms.
4) Lewes Town Beach is on the Delaware Bay so the calmer waters are great for young kids.
More beaches are little further drive, but we love these 4 best.
Come play & relax!
