Anyone record recent temps at Dutch or Shark River Inlet?

[stever2002]

just got back from a warm water trip. Can't wait to dive some more, but the local temps this early are usually pretty chilly. If you feel like sharing, please post temp, location, date & depth.
Thanks,

I'm going to Dutch Springs tomorrow and will post the results. I'm sure it'll be cold, especially below the thermocline, but I'm dreading the 90 F temps while suiting up more than the water temperatures.

Been a month but hope to be there this weekend - I expect warmer waters.

MacLearie Park on 5/27 was 57 degrees at 10 feet.

Sea Girt Reef on 5/27 was 51 degrees at 67 feet.

Been to Dutch Springs once. Early June
Going back 7/8.
Is Dutch a 7mm dive all season?

Yup. Was there last year in August and it was still a 7mm sort of dive, although I was able to ditch the hood and gloves on some shallower dives.

Did not get in the dive shop at Dutch.
Is there a map of the lake available ?

Yup, they have one printed on a dive slate. I haven't been able to find the most updated version online yet.
