About This Activity
Want to get out on the water? Head to the far south end of town to the Rehoboth Bay Sailing Association. While the name sounds like a private members-only club, here is the secret: the public is absolutely welcome. It is a fantastic resource for visitors who want to trade the bar stool for a boat seat.
The Vibe: It's active, salty, and unpretentious. RBSA is tucked away on the bayside off Highway One, offering a gateway to the best sailing waters in Delaware. The bay here is wide and shallow with consistent wind, making it way more manageable than the ocean.
Get on the Water: This is the real deal for sailing enthusiasts. You can rent catamarans, daysailors, or sunfish right on site. Never sailed before? Don't stress - they offer solid sailing instruction to get you comfortable at the helm. If you aren't ready to manage a mainsail, they also rent kayaks and stand-up paddleboards (SUPs) so you can paddle the coast at your own pace.
It is a true community asset that keeps the sailing tradition alive in Dewey. If you are looking for an active afternoon away from the crowds, this is your spot.
