The Belmar Municipal Marina boasts a 70-foot-long floating concrete fuel dock, the easiest and most convient place to fuel your boat. The state-of-the-art floating fuel dock was designed and built by Bellingham Marine, which built all of Belmar’s transient and resident slips. The fueling system can be used either by self service 24 hours a day 7 days a week by using our pay at the pump credit card system or during our regular operating hours one of our curtious employees will do the fueling for you. Belmar’s floating fuel dock is also equipped with two pump-out stations, so there is no waiting and boaters can easily empty their holding tanks regardless of the tide.
But the best thing about the Belmar Marina is the price of our fuel. The prices at our fuel dock are consistently the most competitive in the Shark River.
