Nearby History
The Delaware River has been a highway for commerce since the 16th century. River front towns prospered but often faded to sleepy eloquence.. When planning your trip to Fort Delaware State Park, why not consider spending some time in Historic New Castle, Delaware City, Port Penn, or Odessa? All are located within a twenty minute drive of the other. All offer fascinating local history musueums, resturants, and of course tax free shopping.
