Retail Sales at Sea Shell Shop at 19366 Coastal Highway

Spend your summer working at the iconic Sea Shell Shop in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware — a massive 10,000 sq. ft. coastal retail store and miniature golf course located just half a mile from the Atlantic Ocean. This is the classic Work & Travel USA beach experience: great pay, a fun atmosphere, and a community of international students from over ten countries.

You'll be serving customers, operating the register, keeping the store looking its best, and helping out with everything that makes a busy beach shop tick. Shifts run either 9:30 AM–4 PM or 4 PM–10:30 PM, giving you flexibility to enjoy the beach or even pick up a second job. The employer actively tries to accommodate a second job around your primary schedule here.

Rehoboth Beach is a lively seaside resort town with excellent public transport, walkable streets, and tons of things to do. You'll be just minutes from three shopping malls, July 4th fireworks and festivals, and regular trips organized by local churches and community groups.
