Parasailing: Soaring Above The Waves

Belmar Parasailing: Soaring Above the Jersey Shore

Parasailing 500 feet above Belmar Beach
If you’re looking for the perfect mix of thrill and tranquility at the Jersey Shore, parasailing in Belmar, New Jersey, is an adventure you won’t forget. On a perfect summer day, we took to the skies with Belmar Parasailing, and the experience was nothing short of magical—clear blue skies, expert captains, and ocean views that seemed to go on forever. Here’s everything you need to know about parasailing in Belmar and why it should be at the top of your Jersey Shore bucket list.

A Perfect Day on the Jersey Shore



The weather couldn’t have been better for parasailing in Belmar. With a cloudless, bright blue sky and the Atlantic Ocean sparkling in the sun, we knew it was going to be a great ride. The water was a bit choppy, but our Belmar Parasailing captain handled it with skill and confidence, ensuring a smooth and safe experience from start to finish.


How Parasailing in Belmar Works

For first-timers, parasailing might sound intense, but it’s actually one of the most peaceful ways to take in the Jersey Shore. At Belmar Parasailing, the crew straps you into a secure harness that’s attached to a brightly colored parachute (also called a sail). A strong towline connects you to the boat, and as the captain picks up speed, the wind lifts you into the sky.

Takeoff is gentle—no sudden drops or jolts—just a slow, floating rise until you’re soaring hundreds of feet above the Atlantic.

From 500 feet above, you can see Belmar’s beach, boardwalk, and the sparkling coastline stretching in both directions. The waves leave delicate, lace-like foam patterns on the water, and the ocean seems endless. The noise of the boat fades away, leaving only the sound of the wind as you drift above one of New Jersey’s most beautiful shorelines.

Our Love for Parasailing

Parasailing at Lake George, NY
We’ve been hooked on parasailing for years, with unforgettable flights in places like Lake George, New York, and now the Jersey Shore. Each location offers something unique, but there’s something about the vast Atlantic Ocean that makes parasailing in Belmar feel extra special.

There’s nothing like the mix of adrenaline and calm that comes with being so high above the water. From that height, you can see for miles, and every moment feels surreal. The descent is just as smooth as the ascent, as the crew slowly reels you back in for a gentle landing on the boat.


Until next time, skies

Key West - The Perfect Getaway

Key West : A Tropical Escape Full of Color, Charm, and Adventure Getting There: Easy and Direct Sometimes the best vacations start with a stress-free flight, and ours to Key West, Florida was exactly that. We hopped on a direct flight out of Newark Airport , and just a few hours later we were stepping into the laid-back island vibes of America’s southernmost city. No long layovers, no connections — just palm trees, ocean air, and sunshine waiting for us. Where We Stayed: Peace in New Town While many visitors swear that Old Town is the only place to stay, we opted for the quieter, more affordable New Town and checked into the DoubleTree by Hilton . It turned out to be a perfect choice. Not only did we enjoy peaceful nights away from the bustle, but the hotel’s free hourly shuttle made getting to downtown Key West a breeze. The property itself was a little tropical oasis, complete with a beautiful swimming pool — which just so happened to be home to a family of iguanas . Yes, igua...

Sky-High Views and City Strolls: Edge NYC, the Vessel and the High Line

A Perfect September Day at Edge NYC , Hudson Yards and the High Line On a beautiful mid-September day, we set out for an adventure in Manhattan that blended incredible views, modern architecture, art, and a relaxing walk in the city. Our destination: Edge NYC at Hudson Yards followed by a stroll along the High Line .  Just a one hour bus ride from Monroe, New York to Port Authority and then a five minute subway ride on the 7 train and you will find yourself transported to Hudson Yards! The Vessel in Hudson Yards Finding the Best Ticket Deal Before heading out, we compared ticket options online. Surprisingly, Groupon was more expensive than buying tickets directly through the Edge NYC website . Even better—we managed to snag a special deal and got two tickets for the price of one. That made the experience not just memorable, but affordable too. Edge NYC - 100th floor   Exploring Hudson Yards and the Vessel Hudson Yards itself is stunning. The centerpiece is t...

  Going Down the Shore to  Point Pleasant, New Jersey Point Pleasant Beach If you grew up in New Jersey, you know the phrase “ going down the shore ” is part of our summer vocabulary. The Garden State is lined with wonderful beach towns like  Belmar , Spring Lake , Bradley Beach , each with its own personality. But year after year, we find ourselves drawn back to Point Pleasant, a place that combines everything we love about the Jersey Shore : a beautiful beach, a lively boardwalk, amazing food, and plenty of family fun. Point Pleasant Beach is just a short two hour drive from Monroe, New York .  As Bruce Springsteen once sang, “down the shore everything’s alright.” The Beach and Boardwalk Seagull at the Beach Point Pleasant’s beach is wide, clean, and perfect for soaking up the sun or cooling off in the surf. After a day in the sand, the boardwalk is the heartbeat of town. You can walk its full length all the way to the inlet, where you’ll see the fishing boats ...
