I love Rehobeth Beach. I ate so much Grotto's Pizza the last time I was there. Wow. And yeah, plenty of Skee Ball.

Never been there. But I do have a funky beach story from when I went to this beach on Lake Michigan up in IL. We were swimming around in the murky-as-hell and extremely polluted water, filled with all that lovely radioactive gook that makes you grow gills and whatnot. Seriously, that is some majorly disgusting water, I swear I saw puke floating on top of it. But anyhow since I'm an idiot I went in the water with my glasses on (I didn't intend to go under) and had barely gone out with a couple other people when this monster wave comes by and smacks us all. Oop, my glasses fall off, I can't catch them in time, they're gone.
I was like "Oh crap."
Keep in mind that it was nearly IMPOSSIBLE to see underwater in this freakin' beach, the water was just too murky. But then I found them again as I frantically moved around.
I found them with my FOOT.
They were kinda mashed afterwards though.

Muzlak, then you don't deserve to live so close to the beach
Are there any other snorkelling maniacs out there?

I live about 30 kilometres away from the beach, but I rarely go (easily sunburnt). As for snorkelling, I'm more of a scuba-diver myself (have my NAUI license to dive down to 18m (50ft), but I'll need to do a refresher course seeing as though I last dived about 7 years ago).

While in the Navy, I lived pretty close to the beach. I used to go quite a bit when I lived in South Carolina, but when I moved to Virginia I didn't go that often.
Something about being on a submarine in the middle of the ocean for weeks at a time... Go figure.

Yeah, it really doesn't matter how cool something is, if you live right next to it and see it everyday, it's just not very exciting. I used to live about 10 minutes away from Disneyland for about 10 years. I think I maybe went there twice during that time.
