The maritime gateway where the Delaware Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean is anchored by the shifting sands of Cape Henlopen. This mid-1980s survey details a landscape defined by coastal defense and navigation, featuring a U S Military Reservation and a U S Naval Reservation situated among the dunes of Cape Henlopen State Park. The historic town of Lewes serves as the inland hub, with its corporate boundaries reaching toward the protected waters of Breakwater Harbor.
