Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Marcia Schieck and Rich Greenfield
Aside from the beautiful beaches, there are SO many things we love to do in this area. Here are a few of our favorites we'd love to share with you. September is the BEST summer month here if you plan to extend your stay. “The First Town in the First State” Lewes was the site of the first European settlement in Delaware, a Dutch whaling and trading post named Zwaanendaeland (Swan Valley) founded on June 3, 1631. Come and explore the many historic landmarks and the renowned Zwaanendaeland Museum. Exhibits reflect the history, especially the maritime history of southeastern Sussex County, Delaware, and the Cape Henlopen Lighthouse. Lewes is pedestrian and bike friendly for touring the coastal architectural designs of circa the 17th and 18th centuries. Activities are roughly arranged from nearest the wedding venue to furthest away.
