Lewes Beach is a kitesurfing spot on the shores of Delaware Bay, in the historic town of Lewes. This municipal beach facing the bay offers flat water to moderate chop conditions with good fetch. Lewes is a charming colonial town, the first European settlement in Delaware. The spot benefits from its position at the mouth of the Delaware Bay, catching marine winds. The Cape May-Lewes Ferry terminal is nearby. Easy access with downtown parking.
