West Creek is almost directly across the bay from the New Jersey Maritime Museum (528 Dock Road, Beach Haven). Settlers and visitors first boarded stagecoaches in the 1700s and traveled the dusty, sandy routes. A century later, the train was running north and south, stopping at West Creek. West Creek, the body of water, is accessible from the western side of Little Egg Harbor Bay near an island that is all but gone called Long Point. Long Point has almost eroded away but once held the Breezy Inn, a favorite spot for fishermen and gunners.
