1948 Map of Rehoboth Beach

About this map

Rehoboth Beach and Dewey Beach are captured here as they appeared just after the Second World War, situated between the open Atlantic Ocean and the intricate wetlands of Rehoboth Bay. The coastline at this time is defined by prominent sand dunes and essential maritime infrastructure, including the Rehoboth Beach Coast Guard Sta and the Indian River Inlet Coast Guard Sta. Inland, the Pennsylvania (Delmarva Division) railroad and the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal illustrate the era's vital transportation corridors, linking coastal settlements to the mainland.
