The coastal landscape of southeastern Delaware is defined by the narrow barrier spit between the Atlantic Ocean and the sheltered waters of Indian River Bay. This 1980s era survey documents the intensive residential development and vacation communities stretching from Bethany Beach north through Sussex Shores and Bethany Village. The transition from the oceanfront to the marshy interior is marked by numerous residential enclaves like Murray Estates and Banks Harbor Estates, which are carved into the banks of White Creek.
