“Area” number refers to the numbered yellow or brown boxes on the Fishing Area map (see map on Fishing & Clamming Maps). Access areas are closed from sunset to sunrise unless you are fishing. Note – All motor boats launched from tidal access areas administered by the Division of Fish and Wildlife must be registered in Delaware or have a valid ramp certificate. Ramp certificates cost $35 and are available from the Division of Fish and Wildlife or authorized agents (see Weigh Stations and/or Boat Ramp Certificate Sales). * A daily or seasonal fee may be required at areas administered by the Division of Parks and Recreation.
