Did you know?

Lewes was the site of the first European settlement in Delaware, a whaling and trading post named Zwaanendael (Swan Valley) founded by Dutch settlers in June 3, 1631[2]. It is known to be the earliest town founded in the state, and because Delaware was the first state to ratify the constitution, the town refers to itself as "The first town in the first state."

This city, together with the towns of Rehoboth Beach, Dewey Beach, Bethany Beach, South Bethany, and Fenwick Island, comprises Delaware's beach resort area and is Sussex County's most densely-populated and fastest-growing area. It also is the southern terminus of the Cape May-Lewes Ferry and adjacent to Cape Henlopen State Park and is close to the outlet malls of Rehoboth Beach. It is served by a branch of the Delaware Coast Line Railway that originates in Georgetown.

It serves as a vacation and resort spot popular with residents of northern Delaware, particularly New Castle County. Even though the city technically sits on the lower reach of the Delaware Bay, it is nonetheless considered an ocean resort, particularly as the ocean is only as far away as Cape Henlopen. In addition to being a tourist destination, Lewes is also close to several outlet malls.

The town is also the home of the Zwaanendael Museum, which features exhibits about Delaware's history.
- Second Street is the town's main street and has many shops, restaurants, and historical venues.
- Fisherman's Wharf is a dock that stretches along the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal. It features multiple restaurants, bait shops, and the dock(in season) has hundreds of boats to look at from all over.
- Also, the lightship Overfalls (LV-118-WAL-539) is moored here. It is owned by the Overfalls Maritime Museam Foundation (or OMMF).
