National wildlife refuges offer us all a chance to unplug from the stresses of daily life and reconnect with our natural surroundings. Prime Hook, east of Washington DC, is a globally renowned place for nature photography and birding. There are several ways to enjoy the refuge. You can explore displays at the visitor center, where volunteers will answer questions. You can drive the four county roads that bisect the refuge’s marshes, or walk on the 7.5 miles of hiking trails of varying distances and degrees of difficulty. The refuge’s annual Horseshoe Crab Festival each May is an outdoor recreation highlight of spring in Delaware.

Want to fish or crab? Be sure to purchase a Delaware fishing license and you can fish right on the beach or on the river near the Broadkill Store.

Visit the Broadkill Store, which offers fishing supplies, a limited assortment of grocery items, sandwiches, pizza, milkshakes to order, ice cream, and a small gift shop area. Don't forget to pre-order homemade donuts on the weekend or delicious stickie buns on Tuesdays.

Not far away is the historic town of Milton. Visit Dogfish Head Brewery (tours available), King’s Homemade Ice Cream Shop, or Irish Eyes Pub & Restaurant.

Venture towards Lewes or Rehoboth Beach which is located just south for tax-free outlet shopping, boardwalk rides, games and restaurants.
