Two Mile Beach, on the Atlantic ocean, Lower t-ship, Cape May co., between Turtle Gut and Cold Spring Inlet.[1]
An 1878 description of Two Mile Beach is as follows, viz,
Two Mile Beach was well covered with timber forty years ago; but the lumberman's axe and the encroaching sea have converted into a nearly bare and sandy waste. It is about two miles long.[2]
Communities
The only community on the island is Diamond Beach, a part of Lower Township, which is partially on Two Mile Beach and partially on land reclaimed as a result of the closure of Turtle Gut Inlet; The greater part is occupied by the Two Mile Beach Unit of the Cape May National Wildlife Refuge and a former United States Coast GuardLORAN site.
