Bethany Beach and Fenwick Island have been called the "Quiet Resorts," because unlike their counterparts, these two areas remain residential in nature, surrounded by state park lands and other natural areas. Three state parks, Delaware Seashore, Holts Landing and Fenwick Island State Parks, border the towns on three sides. The fourth side is oceanfront. Little Assawoman Bay, Indian River Bay, and the areas surrounding them provide hours of entertainment for canoers and kayakers, bird watchers, hikers and cyclists. Accommodations range from camping, to bed and breakfasts, to motels. The landmark Fenwick Island Lighthouse has welcomed visitors to Delaware since 1855.
