Dogfish Head Craft Brewery aficionados will be happy to help you at such legendary spots as the Old Mill Crab House in Delmar and Sambo’s Tavern in Leipsic. Roam and relax your way through Milton It’s just one more reason why Milton is becoming one of Southern Delaware’s most buzz-worthy destinations: The scenic Broadkill River , where kayakers gather for a journey past forests and marshlands filled with life. Check out Quest Kayak’s two-hour self-service kayak rentals. Enjoy paddling the Broadkill River at your own pace. Or, if you’re inclined, paddle all the way to the Delaware Bay. While you’re roaming Milton, be sure to stop by Lavender Fields , a peaceful and fragrant oasis of blossom-filled gardens and acres of soft green lavender plants. Enjoy a cup of tea in the restored railroad stationhouse, and pick up some of their handcrafted soaps, lotions, shea butter creams, and balms. Hudson Fields is Milton’s go-to place for sporting events, concerts, and festivals, and outdoor adventurers will enjoy the Edward H. McCabe Nature Preserve , filled with native plants and wildlife, and conveniently located just outside of town (you can even get there via canoe). Leipsic Take a soothing sip at Nassau Valley Vineyards All it takes is a quick turn off of the beach highway, and you’ll find yourself in a charming countryside setting, adorned with rows of grape vines and home to one of Delaware’s oldest wineries, Nassau Valley . Take a self-guided tour, or settle in for a wine tasting before strolling through the art gallery. Before heading home you’ll want to grab a bottle of Nassau’s “Adrift” Merlot, or maybe the “Indian River Red,” a vintner’s blend that’s aged in new French oak for 13 months. VisitDelaware.com 23
