You know what winter is like in the First State – just plain awful! In fact, it’s so bad, that there’s no reason to ever come to Delaware in winter… right? After all:
- There’s nothing to do in the cities…
Facebook / Riverfront Rink Wilmington, Newark and Dover are basically ghost towns from December through March.
- … and no reason to visit the small towns.

- What’s the point of hiking when it’s snowing?

- Everything always looks so drab, and boring.

- Why would you want the beach all to yourself, anyway?

- The days are too short for any amazing sightseeing.

- Even our wildlife won’t stick around.

- There isn’t even anything to eat.

So there you have it – if you were thinking about visiting Delaware in winter, think again! No reason to visit our state parks, beaches, restaurants or towns, because all you’ll find is that everything here is oh-so-boring.
