About this beach

The wild tip of Cape Henlopen where the bay meets the ocean. Heavy wrack lines and nearby marsh make it a reliable spot for both greenheads and stable flies in season.

Worst here around Sep, driven by black flies. Greenheads (horse flies) run heaviest in July; black flies build later, into September.
