The nor’easter that delivered a blow to the coast of Delaware on May 8 is still having an impact as Memorial Day visitors arrive.

During the storm, the wind gusted up to 50 mph in some places, sweeping in water and displacing enough sand to make steep drops out of dunes. Additionally, in some areas, very little beach is available for drive-on surf fishing, even during low tide.

Therefore, the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control announced Thursday that multiple Delaware State Parks drive- and walk-on crossings will be closed this weekend.

As of Thursday, the following access points remain open:

• The Point, Herring Point and Gordons Pond crossings at Cape Henlopen State Park. The northernmost pedestrian crossing at The Point parking lot is closed.
• 3R’s crossing at Delaware Seashore State Park.
• North (York), Middle and South crossings at Fenwick Island State Park.

The following access points are closed:

• Navy crossing at Cape Henlopen State Park.
• Keybox, Conquest and Faithful Steward crossings at Delaware Seashore State Park. The Conquest pedestrian crossings are also closed.

DNREC’s Shoreline and Waterway Management Section is working to reopen drive-on and pedestrian crossings, including at other damaged beaches.

“We’re noticing significant erosion on both the Atlantic Ocean and Delaware Bay coastlines,” said Jesse Hayden, head of the section.

Cape Henlopen and Delaware Seashore state parks’ Facebook pages will be updated regularly with what crossings are open or closed.
