Seacolt Property - Bethany Beach

Property Information

Address: 39623 Seacolt Lane, Bethany Beach, Delaware 19930, United States

Beach Access Information

This property extends 644.34 feet from the easterly right of way of State Route One to the low water line of the Atlantic Ocean. Setting up within this area, including the 100-foot stretch along the low water line, is considered trespassing on private property. Please ensure you remain beyond these boundaries to avoid violating property rights.

Important Notice: Setting up on the beach beyond the mean low tide line is considered trespassing. Please respect private property boundaries.

Easements and Maintenance

There is no public access easement on this property. No state or federally funded beach replenishment project has been performed on this parcel, and no public-use easement or agreement has ever been granted or recorded in connection with beach nourishment. Under Delaware law, a beach is only public where it is government-owned or where the State has obtained an easement or agreement for public use — neither applies here.

All maintenance of the dunes and beach on this property, including dune repair, fencing, grass planting, and beach upkeep, is performed and paid for privately by the owner at the owner's sole expense. No public funds are used, and this private maintenance creates no public right of access.

A Note from the Owner

If you are reading this website you have already likely been asked to leave as you are trespassing. If you are renting in Cotton Patch or Ocean Ridge please stay within the respective private community. Seacolt beach is not a member of either community and is in fact a standalone individually owned private beach.
