Cox Hall Creek empties into the Delaware Bay through a pipe two miles north of the Cape May Canal. According to the history, the creek is named for Dr. Daniel Coxe and a large house that was located on its shore. From the canal to Cox Hall Creek there are a number of small rock groins (sometimes referred to as jetties) protruding into the Bay. About a quarter mile inland from the beach, Bay Drive (which turns into Clubhouse Road) crosses the creek at the S-turn shown in the picture on the left below. The picture in the center shows the creek from the S-turn toward the Bay. The picture on the right shows the creek from the S-turn away from the Bay.
