| Berkeley Island Park/Cedar Creek (Trixie's) - Bayville, NJ USA
Wind Conditions: Excellent Water Conditions: Excellent Launch facilities: Fair Beach conditions: Fair Traffic conditions: Good Safety: Fair Charges: free launch site at county park About the place: This used to be more of a mecca, but usage has declined with the decline of catamaran sailing. Launch area is on south shore of Cedar Creek, a brackish estuary feeding into Barnegat Bay. Fairly heavy PWC usage on weekends, but once you get out of launch area the bay is wide open. Tricky points: launch area is shallow for a few hundred feet; crossing intracaostal waterway channel on weekends. Garden State Parkway to Exit 80 (U.S. 9 South). 5-6 miles south to Brennan Concourse (there are signs for Trixie's Landing and Berkeley Island Park). Road takes 2 right angle turns, but is marked. Beach area is on right before main park entrance at end of road. Trixie's Landing is a small marina on left,owned by Bob Bergstedt, former Hobie (curent Nacra) dealer and avid cat racer.
