Belmar スポットガイド

Manasquan gets all the attention, but this entire stretch is capable of ultra-hollow barrels. On a good southeast swell, there is plenty of room to spread out.

Across from Eastern Lines Surf Shop, 16th Ave. is the surfer's beach in Belmar. It breaks well on all swells and is a good spot to catch if it's not summer. If it is, prepare for a crowd. There are a million people in Belmar in the summer, and the water is no different. There is plenty of parking, which makes it that much easier to crowd the lineup.

To the north is 8th Avenue Jetty, which can produce a heavy barrel with even heavier hassles. Don't bother paddling out if there are more than four surfers in the water as 8th Avenue is locals only and they're not afraid to let you known it.

At the end of Belmar is the Belmar Pier, which, although fickle, can produce a good session here or there. It takes a northeast swell nicely. There are a number of other jetties in Belmar, so there are plenty of chances for you to score.
