Lower Delaware National Wild and Scenic River
Things To Know Before You Come
 

The Lower Delaware flows through a populated corridor; goods and services of all kinds are readily available.

If you plan to go out on the river, bring a PFD (life vest) and wear the PFD. Your life vest can't save you if you don't have it on!

Did You Know?
... the major causes of water fatalities on the Delaware River are: (1) swimming without a lifejacket (PFD); (2) trying to swim across the river; and (3) swimming after drinking lots of alcohol. Alcohol doesn't mix with boating and swimming! Don't DRINK-then-SWIM! NEVER TRY TO SWIM ACROSS A RIVER!
