Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Delaware Seashore State Park adventure.
Camp right by the Atlantic and learn maritime history in the process.
Spread across a long strip of bay and ocean shore, Delaware Seashore State Park is a popular spot to go crabbing, clamming, fishing, swimming, and camping. Its single campground has over 350 sites, spread across the north and south sections of the Indian River, connected by a bridge. Campground facilities include laundry rooms, showers, restrooms, and a camp store, plus a marina with a bait and tackle shop nearby. History buffs can learn about the U.S. Life-Saving Service, which laid the groundwork for the U.S. Coast Guard, by paying a visit to the Indian River Life-Saving Station Museum at the visitor's center.
Delaware Seashore State Park is a year-round destination, though the busiest time is—unsurprisingly—between Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends, when lifeguards are stationed.. Expect highs in the 80s from June through August, with temperatures in the 60s and 70s through September, and early fall is a great time to visit if you want to avoid crowds.
