The Dewey Beach Egg Scoop returns to Van Dyke Street Beach at the Hyatt on Saturday, April 4, 2026. Organized by the Dewey Business Partnership, this free event is the town's signature spring kickoff with the Atlantic Ocean as your backdrop — and parking is free too.
The Schedule: Hunts are split by age so toddlers aren't competing with sprinting pre-teens. Things kick off at 10:45 AM for the 2–4 year olds, 11:00 AM for ages 5–8, and 11:15 AM for 9 and up. Just bring a basket and let them loose on the beach.
Not Just for Kids: Adults can get in on the action with their own egg hunt at 11:30 AM for $20 per person, featuring a 50/50 cash prize for the winning egg that gets surprisingly competitive. At 11:45 AM, bring your four-legged friend for the Dewey Dogs Easter Parade — all leashed pups are welcome.
Don't forget to grab a photo with the Easter Bunny before you head out. If you want a family tradition that feels like a true beach day, the Egg Scoop is your spot.
