Our Story
Yards from the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk and beach, Carltons has been the primary provider of men's and women's apparel for the citizens of the Delmarva penisula and the tourists that visit the resort each summer since 1960. Don't let our age fool you. We have clothing and accessories for grandparents, grandchildren and all in between. Carltons has an experienced staff that provides expert advice and excellent customer service making each visit a pleasant experience.
