Delaware Day

Delaware Day


Book a Trip Aboard the Cape May-Lewes Ferry and Celebrate the First State on National Delaware Day!

As the First State, Delaware is so special it gets to be celebrated twice a year! While the Governors of Delaware have recognized December 7 as Delaware Day dating back to the 1930's, the National Day Calendar declared July 13 #NationalDelawareDay as well, and we're more than happy to celebrate.

For travelers heading to Delaware aboard the Cape May-Lewes Ferry on Friday, July 13, we'll provide a copy of the Delaware Tourism Guide upon arrival, so you can dig in and explore all the great things Delaware has to offer.
