| North of Felton on U.S. 13, the Diamond State Drive-in is the only remaining drive-in movie theater in Delaware. First opened in 1949, the theater is an anomaly in an age of newly constructed multiplexes. The best part of watching movies under the stars – it only costs $8.00 for a double feature. |
