Why Live in Lewes

Lewes is a coastal community with a rich history and beach access. Located 8 miles from Rehoboth Beach, Lewes offers a slower pace and a larger geographic area, featuring a mix of Colonial-era homes and modern subdivisions. The downtown historic district has Colonial, Colonial Revival and Shingle homes, while suburban areas have Craftsman- and Queen Anne-inspired New Traditional builds. Lewes is popular with retirees due to its low property taxes. For recreation, Savannah Beach on the Delaware Bay offers sand volleyball, while Cape Henlopen State Park features hiking and biking trails, including a bike trail connecting Lewes and Rehoboth Beach. The Fort Miles Museum and Historical Area and the Cannonball House Maritime Museum are notable attractions. Downtown Lewes is home to specialty stores, art galleries and restaurants like Agave Mexican Restaurant and Lewes Oyster House. The Historic Lewes Farmers Market operates from May to November. State Route 1 is home to outlet malls, big-box retailers and grocery stores. The Cape Henlopen School District serves the area, with highly rated schools such as Lewes Elementary, Beacon Middle and Cape Henlopen High. Seasonal celebrations include Fourth of July festivities and a long-standing Christmas Parade.
