Stone Harbor is a resort on the northeast side of Hereford Inlet. The highway bridge over the waterway at Mile 102.0 has a bascule span with a 10-foot clearance.
Hereford Inlet is subject to rapid change. Breakers form at all times on the shoals and in moderate weather on the bar. The approach to the inlet is extremely dangerous with a following sea. The depth over the bar is about 4 feet, but passage should not be attempted without local knowledge. A lighted whistle buoy marks the approach to the inlet.
Hereford Inlet Light (39°00’24″N., 74°47’28″W.), 57 feet above the water, is shown from a white square tower with cupola on a white dwelling on the south side of the inlet.
