Visit Delaware - Rest & Relaxation
Delaware is a state for all seasons and all ages and should be top of your list when you are planning to see America. There is something for everyone here from first-class wines and ales to beautiful houses, lavender fields and plantations. Music festivals and parades to duty-free shopping for shop-a-holics and miles of lovely beaches with beautiful views.

The first state in the United States has so much to offer as you travel round sightseeing because it is steeped in history dating back to 1400 when the Algonkian native Indians became the first settlers there. It has its own history trail which has become an iconic national attraction. Visitors from all over the world can travel along the trail exploring Delaware's heritage.

But Delaware is not just about history, sitting on the Atlantic coast sandwiched between Maryland to the south and west, New Jersey to the north east and Pennsylvania to the north it has miles of wonderful beaches. They have stunning views over the ocean and if you are lucky you will see dolphins playing around in the surf.

Delaware is an all-year state to visit as there is something going on right through the year. If you go in October one of the things you must see is the annual Sea Witch Halloween and Fiddlers Festival at Rehoboth Beach. It includes a parade and costume competition including prizes for the best-dressed pet, which is not restricted to dogs and cats.  During the festive season because of the tax-free shopping in Delaware you can get some lovely presents. In Odessa you will see the most lavishly decorated houses or enjoy the family-friendly Milton Holly Festival.

Delaware is renowned for its wineries  and ale breweries scattered across the state. You can visit them individually or sign up for their escorted wine and ale trail where you can visit them all and taste a sample at each.  If you are a lover of the arts this is the state for you. There are many cultural events held throughout the year including the annual Firefly Music Festival held in Dover in June. This three-day festival features some of the top bands around.  Delaware is well served by museums with exhibits to suit all tastes and one of the most fascinating is the Air Mobility Command Museum in Dover. This museum houses a unique collection of vintage aircraft dating back to World War II and you can actually climb aboard the planes and fly their simulators.

Delaware is a state for all ages and all interests as it has something for everyone so make sure you include it on your list when planning to see America.
