ACME BARGE
 DIRECTIONS: (Long Beach Island, Ocean County)
Take the Garden State Parkway to Exit 63, Rt 72. Stay on Rt 72 over
the bridge then drive south on Long Beach Blvd. Continue on Long
Beach Blvd to the Acme supermarket in Peahala Park. Make the first
right after the supermarket and drive to the end.
CONDITIONS:
The Acme Barge was named for its location, behind the Acme
supermarket in Peahala Park. According to diver Cathie Cush, the
steel barge sits in 18 feet of water, at high tide, and is partially
exposed at both low and high tide. Divers can enter the water from
the bulkhead. Exits are made easy by using a ladder located on the
south end. In an article Cathie wrote about the barge, she
reported that Spring is the best time to dive the barge, because
visibility is better.; In the summer when the bay water warms up
algae reduces visibility. Divers have reported that the barge is
covered with bryozoans and tube worms. According to George Dreher,
of Triton Divers, be sure to stay close to a Dive Flag as the area
is heavily trafficked with pleasure boats and jet skis.
