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.

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.
