I did not expect a state this small to fit all of this into one weekend 🌊🚣♀️🏁
👉 Save this for your East Coast bucket list if you only have a few days of PTO and want a trip that packs WAY more into one weekend than you’d expect!
is a state you can drive across in just a few hours, but still kayak through bald cypress forests, experience NASCAR weekend at Dover Motor Speedway, hike coastal trails, relax on the beach AND do some tax free shopping in beautiful small towns…all in one trip.
There was still so much we didn’t get to do and I already want to go back!
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO:
🏎️ If you’re hoping to experience NASCAR, plan around race weekends at Dover Motor Speedway
🛶 Trap Pond is best experienced by kayak. You can rent them there or bring your own
🌊 Cape Henlopen is an easy beach stop before heading home. Bring binoculars or your telephoto lens to spot sea birds nesting and fishing along the coast!
📍 Say “DELAWARE” and I’ll send you a full itinerary!
