Dillon's Creek Marina is located at NOAA 12323 and 12324 or
39-56-67.3 N by 074-08-19.4 W. To find it, go to the mouth of the Toms River, which branches off the New
Jersey Intracoastal Waterway at Mile 15. Dual bridges join Seaside Heights
on the barrier island to the mainland and serve as useful landmarks. The wide entrance to the Toms River is just south of these spans. Head
due west up the Toms River. About a mile up the river on the
north shore, just before Long Point, you'll find the mouth of Dillon's
Creek. The entrance daymarks, red triangles and green squares are
tacked high up. A sandy beach and gazebo just to the south of the
entrance provide useful landmarks. The marina is just a few yards
beyond, set amongst trees and marsh grass, under the hill of Island Heights.
