bypassing the Delaware
In Response To: Hang on ()

We are bringing our boat down the the Chesapeake this summer from Maine, we have plenty of time. One option is to leave Cape May
and head South along the Delmarva Coast. I've done both the Delaware and Delmarva runs as straight on through
routes without stopping, with crew. This trip, its just my wife and I. So, I'm thinking about breaking up the Cape May route South by stopping in Ocean City.
The entrance looks reasonable. But has anyone got local knowledge on this Harbor? Chincoteague Harbor entrance looks kind of dicey.
After getting towards around the Cape, has anyone anchored at Kiptopeke Beach? Or would you recommend Little Creek?
Thanks,
