Fenwick Island Vacation Rentals and Hotels

Fenwick Island, Delaware is a quaint seaside community on the East Coast. Actually a peninsula, Fenwick Island is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on the East, the Little Assawoman Bay on the West, the Delaware State Park on the North, and the Mason-Dixon Line on the South. Being surrounded by water makes Fenwick Island a fishing paradise, with rockfish, bluefish, and flounder the main catches in the Atlantic Ocean. In addition to fish, the Little Assawoman Bay is the perfect spot for clams, crabs, mussels, and oysters. Swimming, surfing, jet-skiing, kayaking, and other water sports are popular both in the ocean and the bay.

Fenwick Island is the permanent home to just a few hundred, but during the summer months Fenwick's population grows to several thousand as vacationers occupy the many rental homes and hotels available. But even at its most populated, Fenwick Island remains peaceful and low-key. Just beyond the Mason-Dixon Line from Fenwick Island is Ocean City, Maryland, where visitors can enjoy the boardwalk and nightlife. But Fenwick Island itself also offers both casual and fine dining, shopping, attractions, and more. The Fenwick Island Lighthouse, completed in 1859, remains in operation, and visitors are allowed to view it during certain hours and days.
