October is a fun time to be at the beach!!
We have a little bit of something for everyone in coastal Maryland and Delaware this fall! From pumpkin patches to haunted houses and costume parties, immerse yourself in some Halloween fun!
Pro tips: Remember that the temperature can change quickly at this time of year, so dress accordingly and don’t forget to bring an umbrella for the occasional rain shower. And of course, we can’t forget that we are still amid a pandemic, so businesses may have different rules, as well as staff shortages. So please remember to be patient and kind.
