The Delaware Department of Transportation, DelDOT, has four webcam bridge cams at the Inlet.
According to the Delaware Surf Fishing website the “Indian River Inlet has a killer New Web Cam.” Actually, there are four webcams (bridge cams? bridgecam?) at and near the Indian River Inlet Bridge with two being mounted on top of the southeast and northwest stanchions (or pylons, if you prefer).

There are four area cameras that can be accessed on your phone via the DelDOT app or on your laptop/desktop computer. A screenshot on your phone can be “enlarged’ to show some nicely detailed images. (Click the picture below of the northside beach, to see a larger image.)
The Indian River Inlet Bridge is one of the most iconic structures in Sussex County, Delaware. Spanning over the Indian River Bay between Lewes and Rehoboth Beach, this bridge is a major thoroughfare for tourists and locals alike. The Delaware Department of Transportation has installed traffic cams on both sides of the bridge to make traveling easier. A side benefit is that fishermen can also see “what’s happening” any time of day.
These four state-of-the-art web cams provide live streaming video footage from multiple angles along the bridge at all times, so drivers (and fishermen) can check out current conditions before hitting the road. The cameras also monitor real-time traffic flow and provide alerts about any potential delays or construction that may be taking place nearby. This technology allows travelers to plan their trips accordingly and avoid any unnecessary congestion or delays.
