    "Great place to retire or as a weekend retreat. Prime Hook offers very safe, clean beaches for kids and dogs. Miles of beaches to walk, exploring for wildlife and shells. Excellent place to sail and kayak. Sand bars offer fun for kids. Community backs up to Prime Hook Wildlife refuge teaming with wildlife with nesting ospreys, eagles and other waterfowl. Quiet and peaceful and a perfect all year round destination. It is one of the closest Delaware Bay beaches to Philly, DC, MD and VA.. "
