Turtle Creek (New Jersey)

Turtle Creek is a 1.9-mile-long (3.1 km)[1] tributary of the Mullica River in southern New Jersey in the United States.[2]

From source to outlet, it is entirely surrounded by the tidal marshes of the Swan Bay Wildlife Management Area. The former upper reaches of the stream, reaching some distance north into the Wharton State Forest, have been diverted and given their own channel, reaching the Mullica to the west of the remaining stream.
