Monmouth County is located in the central portion of the U.S. state of New Jersey. It is bordered to its west by Mercer, Middlesex and Burlington Counties, to its south by Ocean County, to its east by the Atlantic Ocean, and to its north by the Raritan Bay (sharing a border with the boroughs of Staten Island, Brooklyn, and Queens in New York City, across it). Monmouth County's geographic area comprises 30% water.

Forbidden Zones:

  • Swimming River Reservoir - Colts Neck
  • Glendola Reservoir - Wall
  • Point Pleasant Canal
  • anywhere near the Navy Pier at Belford
  • Shark River Inlet would be crazy
  • Navesink Inlet would be crazy
  • Manasquan Inlet would be suicidal

Navesink River

Navesink River
( 40.36582, -74.04753 )

  1. Navesink River - Claypit Creek ( 40.39367, -74.02062 )
  2. Navesink River - Fair Haven ( 40.36647, -74.04204 )

  4. Navesink River - Rumson (E) ( 40.37649, -73.99990 )
  5. Navesink River - Rumson (W) ( 40.37650, -74.01310 )
  6. Shadow Lake - Middletown ( 40.34698, -74.10476 )
  7. Swimming River - Middletown ( 40.34831, -74.08318 )
  8. Swimming River - Red Bank ( 40.33838, -74.08815 )

The Navesink River is more like a big brackish lake, except where it narrows-down and connects to Raritan Bay. While it is tidal, most of the river has negligible current, although it is wide enough to get choppy if the wind is strong. The water is generally clean, unlike the nearby Swimming River. Boat traffic is not too bad either.

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.

Prospertown Lake WMA - Jackson

Prospertown Lake - Jackson
( 40.13370, -74.44958 )

  1. Prospertown Lake - Jackson ( 40.13497, -74.45779 )

This is a nice clean lake that straddles the border between Monmouth and Ocean Counties. The neat thing about it is, if you scroll the map to the upper-right corner, that is not some industrial park, that is Great Adventure! This is the lake that is at the back of the park. At the east end of the lake, you are looking up at all the rides, while to the south is the Safari Park. You can see more water from there, but I wouldn't jump any of the dykes, as that would put you on Great Adventure's property, or maybe in the lion pen. It's not a big lake, but there is plenty of shoreline to inspect. There is a small dam at the western end. No real facilities, just parking.
