Delaware may the second smallest in the US but those who travel here consider it a hidden gem. Often overshadowed by neighbouring Pennsylvania and Maryland the handful of tourists who head to Delaware for holiday enjoy the seclusion and secrecy of this east coast state.
Delaware’s nickname, The First State, refers to the fact that Delaware was the first to ratify the Articles of Confederation (the first document in the United States Constitution that legally names political entities “states”). The first of many things occurred in Delaware. The first time Betsy Ross’s famous flag was flown was at the Battle of Cooch’s Bridge located in Newark. Nylon was first produced in Delaware at the Du Pont Laboratories in Seaford. And, New Castle was the site of the nation’s first scheduled steam railroad in 1831.
Since there is no major airport in Delaware, there are no direct flights to Delaware. Flights to Delaware’s New Castle County Airport are available for private aircraft and some limited commercial flights. Once you’re in Delaware, sit back and enjoy the crisp air from the ocean breeze. Take a walk under the stars in charming downtown Wellington, or just sip a nice glass of wine at one of the many hidden restaurants in the hills. Whatever the reason for visiting this small state, visitors always leave wanting more.
Delaware has a moderate climate with average monthly temperatures that range from zero degrees (Celsius) in winter to 24 degrees in summer. More than half the days are sunny, and temperatures along the Atlantic coast are about ten degrees warmer in summer and cooler in winter.
Delaware is 96 miles long and varies from nine miles to 35 miles in width. The best way to get around the state is by car.
Wilmington is on the main East Coast train and bus routes, but to get to other parts of the state you will need to drive.
