Sunset on the bay

This website is integrated with OpenLayers maps - you can zoom and scroll the imagery to get a better view. Click on a green dot to load a county map. I have also added a Message Board where you can create your own account and use to arrange meet-ups, etc.

OpenAI Says:

NJKayak.net is a New Jersey-focused kayaking resource website that offers maps, put-in locations, and general information for paddlers interested in kayaking across the state:

What NJKayak.net Is

It’s a kayaking guide site for New Jersey with interactive county-based maps showing kayaking spots, public access points, and various markers for places to paddle.

The maps use OpenLayers (so you can pan and zoom on a larger screen) with markers indicating things like free and paid access points, rental locations, and other points of interest.

You can click on counties to begin exploring kayak access sites and see useful GPS info for planning trips.

Additional Features

The site also lists stores and places where you can get kayak gear (e.g., West Marine, Dick’s Sporting Goods).

There are sections for rentals and other paddle-related resources, though these are relatively simple lists rather than formal directories.

A blog shares updates, equipment tips, and site improvements by the creator.

What It’s Not

NJKayak.net is not a commercial kayak shop or rental operator itself - it’s an informational resource. If you want to buy kayaks or gear online, other sites such as NJKayaks.com / Yakkity Yaks Kayaks offer products and accessories for sale.

Much of this part or Raritan Bay is fenced-off because of lead pollution from the industrial slag used to build jetties and seawalls in the 1970s. Supposedly, most of it has been cleaned up, but the whole area remains 'off-limits'. Since the toxins leach into the water and are carried off by the currents, you really have to wonder about the entire bay. A quick search online will reveal more on this subject than you ever wanted to know.
