History

What is now Dover Beaches North was first settled in the early 19th century by the Chadwick family as a hunting and fishing resort. Further development continued in 1883 with the construction of a Coast Guard Lifesaving Station and the completion of the Pennsylvania Railroad on the peninsula, which included a stop at Chadwick Beach. The area was opened to major development after the completion of what is now Route 35 in 1913.[10] The area saw its largest growth as a vacation resort in the middle of the 20th century. In 1961, the Pennsylvania Railroad right-of-way was converted into a new southbound roadway for Route 35, allowing the original 1913 roadway to exclusively carry northbound traffic.[11] Today, the area consists of several private beaches governed by homeowners' associations; there are no public beaches in the CDP. These private beach communities, from south to north, are roughly as follows:

  • Ocean Beach, developed from 1946 into the 1960s and consisting of four sections (Units 1-3 and Ocean Beach Shores)[12]
  • Brightwater Beach
  • Rutherford Beach
  • Sunset Manor
  • Monterey Beach, established in 1948[13]
  • Seacrest Beach, established in 1954[14]
  • Chadwick Beach
  • Silver Beach
  • Normandy Beach, established in 1916[15]
