The busy beach towns of Lewes, Bethany Beach, Rehoboth Beach, and Fenwick Island are full of waterfront restaurants that will let you dine with panoramic views of the gorgeous rivers, bays, canals, and ocean. These restaurants can get busy, though, and sometimes you want to relax without heading all the way down to the beach. A visit to JP’s Wharf in Bowers Beach will bring you to a charming bayside restaurant that is one of the most incredible restaurants in Delaware.

JP's Wharf is located at 201 Hubbard Ave, Frederica, DE 19946.

The charming fisherman's restaurant is open when the waters are warm enough to bring in a fresh catch, so you'll have to wait until spring to dine on the dock.

Because this is a working dock, it's truly a seasonal restaurant. It opens in the spring when the waters are right for catching seafood.
