Thank you so much everyone for the great responses! So if I am heading down the Jersey Turnpike from New York, where do you recommend cutting off to head over towards the Bay?
You can stay on the NJ turnpike to the Delaware Memorial Bridge as mentioned. If you stay on I-295 to I-95 South, the exit for DE-1 is not far. This eliminates the drive on US-13 through New Castle. I-295 merges into the left lanes of I-95 and you have to move over to the right within a few miles so it can be a little nerve wracking if traffic is really heavy.
Another option would be to switch from the NJ Turnpike to the Garden State Parkway. Take the Parkway to the end and take the
Cape May-Lewis Ferry to De. From the ferry take US-9 to DE-1 South to DE-24 West to US-113 and then continue South on US-113.
