Exploring Delaware: Broadkill Beach

Every now and again, you may even get a guest post from someone I know through social media!

Now, let’s talk about Broadkill Beach a little bit. For as long as I have been coming to and living in Delaware, I never actually went to Broadkill Beach until this year. We got a new rental listing up there, and my mom, having taken over my rental portfolio when I switched jobs, wanted to see where the house was. So she, my dad, and I all rode up there on a shared day off. At first, I didn’t know how I felt about it because it was so far off the beaten path.

More recently, I went back to Broadkill to take photos for our Milton Community Page at work. On this trip, I came to the conclusion I actually did enjoy it. Being off the beaten path, it is so much calmer and less crowded than Lewes or Rehoboth, which I appreciated. You also have some really fun things to do close by - you pass Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge along the way to Broadkill Beach, and downtown Milton is about 10 minutes west.
