Some of the best areas around or in the city of Bear, DE are traveling along the Chesapeak Canal in a canoe, or going on a fishing trip at Lums Pond State Park.

We have the Christiana Mall for our teens, the Hullabaloo Amusement Park for the younger ones, and the Delaware Rock Gym for the more adventurous.
