Bethany Beach and its neighboring coastal communities define this section of the Delaware shore, where the Assawoman Canal cuts through the low-lying landscape to connect the inland bays. The map reveals a high concentration of residential developments and resort communities such as Sea Colony, Middlesex Beach, and Tower Shores lining the Atlantic coast. Inland, the older centers of Ocean View and Millville serve as anchors for the local community, with historical markers like the Ocean View Presbyterian Cem and Banks Cem providing points of interest for genealogists.
