About Bethany Beach

A classic, family-focused resort town, Bethany Beach encompasses its cozy boardwalk, the lively Bethany Bandstand, and the nearby Salt Pond. Typical summer days are filled with walking the boardwalk, gathering for live summer bandstand concerts, family ocean swimming, and bodyboarding in the gentle surf. Tide tracking guarantees the best wave conditions; bodyboarders and swimmers consistently find the best, most rideable wave shapes breaking over the nearshore sandbars during a mid-to-high incoming tide.
