Shark River - Neptune/Belmar

Shark River
( 40.18786, -74.03461 )

  1. Shark River - Belmar ( 40.17946, -74.03743 )
  2. Shark River - Marina ( 40.19101, -74.03886 )
  3. Shark River - Neptune ( 40.19364, -74.03092 )
  4. Shark River - Wall Township ( 40.19149, -74.05792 )

Shark River is not really a river, it is more of a saltwater lagoon with an outlet to the sea. The actual inlet would be a very bad place to go, with a lot of boat traffic and sometimes swift tidal current. The lagoon is much better, and I have marked two spots that are easy access and parking - both in public parks. Don't try to use the boat ramp, you might get in trouble.

Turkey Swamp Park

Turkey Swamp Park - Freehold
( 40.19426, -74.30272 )

  1. Turkey Swamp Park - Freehold ( 40.19577, -74.30435 )

This is a rather small lake with a long shoreline and even a couple of islands. Would probably make an interesting afternoon.

Seat Pads

The way you sit in a kayak places almost all your weight on your butt, and there is little way to vary your position. In a short time you can get very sore. If your kayak has any kind of seat pad at all, it is a thin hard cruel joke that does not help in the least.
