Experience events with your fabulous friends, gregarious groups, historians and horticulturalists. Enjoy irresistible ice cream, the 4th of July jamboree or Kid's Ketch for lighthearted laughs. Maritime marvels, nocturnal noshes or oysters outdoors pair with parades or a quest for quiet times. Revel in relaxation at Second Street's tantalizing treasures which are unbelievably understated. The variety of views are wonderfully walkable. Xenodochial becoming xenial will make you yearn for Lewes' zealous zestiness!
