MARINAS & WATERWAYS
Whether you’re sailing on a yacht, whiling away the afternoon
casting your fishing line from your cabin cruiser, looking for a
peaceful waterway to paddle your kayak or a cool, relaxing spot
for a family picnic, you’ll discover plenty of scenic waterways
throughout Middlesex to wet your whistle.
Waterfront parks line the Raritan Bay and River and the Arthur
Kill, many with marinas and boat launches. The beautiful
Municipal Marina at Carteret Waterfront Park has 185 slips,
and Perth Amboy Harborside Marina, with easy access out to
the Raritan Bay, offers brand new concrete floating docks that
can accommodate 137 boats, with a 300’ berth available for
dockage.
Take advantage of pleasant waterside walkways and easy
access for personal watercraft in one of Middlesex’s many
riverfront parks. Johnson Park runs along the northern banks
of the Raritan River, adjacent to East Jersey Old Town Village,
and through Piscataway and Highland Park. The park’s diverse
facilities include a small zoo and paths that connect to the East
Coast Greenway.
Paddle up to the floating dock at New Brunswick Landing at
Boyd Park, only 11 nautical miles from Raritan Bay, for daytime
docking. A pleasant five- to seven-minute walk brings visitors
to downtown New Brunswick’s thriving commercial and historic
districts via a pedestrian overpass.
