Sunset Beach, Ocean beach in Lower Township, United States
Sunset Beach is an ocean beach in Lower Township along the Delaware Bay with a wide sandy shore and open water views. The strand features natural beach conditions with wooden paths providing access from the parking area.
The beach holds the remains of a World War I-era concrete ship that ran aground during a storm. The wreck remains visible and serves as a reminder of early maritime history.
The beach serves as a gathering place for the local community throughout the year. People come here for celebrations, quiet moments, and to mark special occasions together.
Free parking is available in a dedicated lot close to the shore, and wooden walkways provide easy access to the water. The site is most accessible and welcoming during warmer months when facilities are in full operation.
The shore is known for rare quartz crystals that wash up from the Delaware River, often sparkling in the sand. Visitors frequently search for these natural gems while walking along the water's edge.
