Belmar Beach, Belmar

The 1.3-mile Belmar Boardwalk is more of a party atmosphere, while the section through Ocean Grove is lined with benches, street lamps, and potted flowers The boardwalk and beach area is located on Ocean Avenue and runs from First to Twentieth Avenues, offers many interesting attractions, shops, and eateries along the boardwalk, as well as fun along the extensive stretch of beach. The Boardwalk has beautiful sunset, and it would be great to witness that. The beach and atmosphere work as additives to the situation. It is a perfect place for a long romantic walk Smoking is prohibited on the entire beach and boardwalk at all times. dogs/bike/skating is also not allowed.

Nice clean beach. The crowds look decent. Decent amount of restaurants. It's a beautiful town with a large older crowd and a bit of hoodlums in the mix. The younger crowd make it less safe feeling.

Loooovw this beach! I’m thankful this year we were able to go to the beach and it was fun, clean, not too crowded or noisy! Parking wasn’t a problem too. Some boardwalk... appreciate that there’s 711 nearby we could easily buy ice. Brought food with us and it’s a picnic beach! Amazing waves!! Really cool for family gathering /outings on a low budget too.great for families or anyone who loves the beach! Bring food/snack and drinks with you. A good sunblock lotion, water to dehydrate a chair and an umbrella when it’s too sunny you don’t want to be out all day under the sun.

We visited on a weekday and were able to find free parking. Belmar has a lowkey, family-friendly vibe with a well-tended neighborhood and downtown beyond the beach. A daily beach pass is $10+ fees. You have to pay by navigating a glitchy QR-based app and use a credit card.Their sandy beach is pretty smooth with few rocks, shells or other debris underfoot. It's a good beach for bird-watching and strolling the newish boardwalk. There are no onsite shower facilities, dogs are not allowed and the beach is carryin/out.

This beach was very nice and clean. You do need to have a beach tag/ bracelet to get on, so you need to preorder that. The water was very warm, surprisingly for July, when we went. Wasn't too crowded for a Friday either! There is a boardwalk, just not like WW if that's what you want. The area is also very clean and nice. It's street parking, free, but then there are spots that have metered parking, you use an online app for that. You won't be disappointed if you go here.
