New Jersey Kayaking

Seals & Dolphins

Harbor Seal

Harbor seals are not uncommon in the winter, but kayaking is, so don't expect to encounter them when you are out for a paddle.

Common Dolphin

On the other hand, the Common Dolphin prefers warmer weather, and can be seen all through kayaking season. They go south for the winter.

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:
