4 spots
The 3rd Avenue Jetty is at the north end of Belmar's beach-break stretch, where rock groins create wedgy peaks on both sides.
8th Avenue Jetty is one of Belmar's heaviest and most localized peaks.
Belmar's 16th Street break is a classic beach break with shifting sandbars and peaks that break both left and right. It suits intermediate surfers and works on any tide with south‑to‑east swells and offshore west winds.
The Belmar Fishing Pier at 19th Avenue marks the south end of Belmar's mile-long beach-break stretch.
