Put on your walking shoes…and step back in time with Rehoboth Beach Walking Tours, sponsored by the Rehoboth Beach Historical Society! The gentle 45 minute stroll around the downtown area gives participants a peek back into the events, storms and people who helped shape the Rehoboth Beach we know today.
