Cohansey Cove is a coastal embayment on the Delaware River, forming the tidal mouth of the Cohansey River before it enters the Delaware Bay. The cove is characterized by significant tidal currents, with speeds reported to exceed two knots during peak flow. Paddlers must plan their trips carefully around the tide cycle, as these strong currents can make progress difficult. The cove is relatively exposed, offering limited protection from winds, particularly from the northeast. Water depths in the main anchorage area can be around 40 feet, indicating this is a deep-water feature suitable for larger vessels, which contributes to boat traffic considerations. The cove provides access to extensive surrounding wetlands and marshlands, which are notable for supporting wintering raptors and waterfowl, offering significant wildlife viewing opportunities. A beach area exists within the cove, suitable for landing and allowing pets. For trip planning, using the cove as an anchorage or stopover can shorten a longer journey down the Delaware River to the Delaware Bay and onward to Cape May. There is a reference to a potential canoe or kayak launching site. The adjacent Cohansey River flows for approximately 30 miles through Cumberland County, emptying into this cove, suggesting potential for extended trips combining the river and the cove.
