Best Boardwalks In US: Rehoboth Ranks 6th.

And in some very good company, too.  The Boardwalk is only about a mile long and most of that is residential.  (Click the image to embiggen.) Only a small portion is devoted to games, rides, foods, and other entertainments. From National Geographic. Slide Show of the top 10, but with few details:

National Geographic released their top 10 list of the nation's best boardwalks on Wednesday. The choices read as a who's who (or what's what, if you will) of the country's amusement and recreation areas.

Atlantic City, not surprisingly, was named in the number one spot. It was called "the grandfather of boardwalks" by the magazine. The Associated Press notes that the boardwalk was built in 1870 as a way to keep the sand from beachgoers bodies from entering oceanfront hotels.

As if being voted one of the cleanest beaches in the country wasn't enough, this will (unfortunately) put tiny Rehoboth Beach on the tourist maps everywhere.  Oh, well.

And so it goes.
