From Baltimore: Drive south
on I-95. Take Exit 4A, which is Route 1 South / Route 7 South /
Christiana Mall Road. From there follow Route 1 South until you
are in Dewey. (Note: Delaware Route 1 IS NOT the same as the Route
1 that goes through Baltimore, Philadelphia, Trenton, etc.) Route
1 shares the roadbed with Route 13 and Route 113 at times so you
will merge with and split from them several times. Always defer
to Route 1. It's faster (65 MPH), it's newer (parts are brand new
this year) and it's the road that goes through Dewey. Delaware
wants you to go to their beaches so the road signs point you toward
the "shore points" if there is ever a question. There
are two $1 tolls along the way, which use the EZPass system.
From the Washington Area:
US 50 East across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. Left on to MD 404 East
at light about 18 miles from the bridge. Left onto DE 16 East at
light about 7 miles past Denton. Right onto DE 1 South at light to
Dewey Beach.
