On Tuesday, December 2nd, 2025, Friends of Belmar Harbor is launching a special Giving Tuesday GoFundMe campaign to protect, grow, and share one of Belmar’s greatest treasures: our Shark River waterfront. For more than a decade, Friends of Belmar Harbor (FOBH) has been offering access to children discovering the bay for the first time, teens learning to sail and lead, adults finding peace on the water, and families creating summer memories that last a lifetime.

Dear Friends & Supporters, The Friends of Belmar Harbor celebrated an incredible 2025 Summer Sailing season with 325 children participating in our Learn to Sail, Adventure, and Discovery programs.

Under the guidance of an exceptional coaching staff, sailors of all ages and skill levels took to the water to explore, challenge themselves, and develop new skills
