I have marked Lot C on the bay side, which is the best combination of parking and access to the water. This spot is very popular with windsurfers. You could also use Spermacetti Cove to the north. On a very fine day, you could even try the ocean side.

Shadow Lake - Middletown

Shadow Lake
( 40.35025, -74.09585 )

  1. Navesink River - Fair Haven ( 40.36647, -74.04204 )
  2. Navesink River - Red Bank ( 40.35212, -74.06980 )

  7. Swimming River - Red Bank ( 40.33838, -74.08815 )

This small lake is about a mile long. The only public launch is at the west end in Stevenson Park, off West Front Street. There is a channel from there to the lake, but good luck finding it - be prepared to run aground. Fortunately, the bottom is firm sand, and a short tow on foot will get you out to deeper water. It is also possible to go a short ways up the creek.

Shark River - Neptune/Belmar

Shark River
( 40.18786, -74.03461 )

  1. Shark River - Belmar ( 40.17946, -74.03743 )
  2. Shark River - Neptune ( 40.19364, -74.03092 )
  3. 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.

My preferred launch point is on the river behind the little strip mall off Route 527 / Old Matawan Rd. I have never had a problem parking here, although I don't think this would be a good place for a large group to show up. Entry can be messy if the water is low. I wouldn't wear white. The launch site is pretty muddy at low tide, try to hit this spot when there is plenty of water.

This is a very shallow body of water, and in times of drought it can dry up entirely, as in 2024.
