Rehoboth named top family beach town by TripAdvisor

One Delaware beach town is gaining more fame.

Rehoboth Beach was named one of the 10 Best Beaches for Families by Family Vacation Critic, TripAdvisor's family travel site.

"Beach vacations are at the top of so many families' must-do list throughout the year," said Lissa Poirot, editor-in-chief of Family Vacation Critic, in a press release. "Whether for a day trip or a longer vacation, our list aims to help families narrow down the options to find beaches that truly are fantastic for families — every beach has lifeguards, in addition to kid-friendly activities and a selection of lodging options nearby. These beaches go beyond just a day on the sand, but offer some really fun features for families to do together."
