Why Do People Travel Thousands of Miles to Whale Watch in Belmar, NJ?
Because what we offer is more than a boat ride—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
On today’s trip aboard the Jersey Girl, we welcomed guests from all over the world—Germany, Norway, Nebraska, Missouri. One couple told us as we pulled back into the dock at 4 PM, “We’re exhausted, but that was absolutely fantastic. Worth every mile of our 4-hour drive back to Pennsylvania.”
These moments remind us what makes our trips so special: the shared wonder of seeing a humpback whale breach for the first time… no matter where you’re from.
🌊 Pro tip: If you’re planning a vacation to the Jersey Shore, book your whale-watching trip at the beginning of your stay. Weather can shift, and giving yourself flexibility ensures you don’t miss this life-changing experience. Don’t wait until the last day—do it early, and you’ll thank yourself.
