The Swimming River is an extension of the Navesink. On the map above, you can see the main put-in is at the upper-right in the new (2015) county park. You need to check in at the ranger's hut; there is a ramp fee of $7 per vessel, including kayaks and canoes. The park also has a strict closing time, at which the gates are locked. For details, see the county's page here:

Deal Lake - Asbury Park

Deal Lake
( 40.23338, -74.01328 )

Deal Lake - Asbury Park (N) ( 40.23759, -74.00784 )
Deal Lake - Asbury Park (S) ( 40.22957, -74.00938 )

This lake has a lot of different branches to explore, and you can actually go quite a long way. The two marked sites are the best accesses for the northern and southern branches of the lake. Unfortunately, located in the middle of Asbury Park, the water is not the cleanest, especially near the railroad and toward the drain at the beach. The 'headwaters' are better.
