How to Use This South Belmar, New Jersey Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for South Belmar, New Jersey. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of New Jersey or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to South Belmar.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About South Belmar, New Jersey
South Belmar is a locality in Monmouth County, New Jersey, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,700. The population density is 3200.0 people per km². South Belmar is located at 40.1709°N, 74.0274°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 07719.South Belmar maintains a quiet, low-slung geography where the steady, dark pulse of Polypod Brook draws a meandering line through the landscape toward the nearby Atlantic Ocean. It lies 2.7 miles south of Neptune, NJ (from Neptune, NJ: bearing 180°T), and is situated 7.9 miles southeast of Monmouth. The air here holds a distinct salt-heavy weight, a lingering dampness that clings to the shingles of modest bungalows and settles deep into the soil of Lake Como. Beyond the immediate streets, the terrain remains flat and unassuming, marked by the proximity of Shark River Island and the distant, cooling influence of the sea. Light at dusk takes on a bruised, metallic quality, reflecting off the water’s edge in long, thin ribbons of gray that seem to stretch across the horizon toward the faint, unreachable silhouette of Lippincort Hill.
South Belmar preserves a character forged by the steady rhythm of suburban life and the slow reclamation of marsh and meadowland that once defined this coastal stretch. The local economy has shifted from earlier, more industrial ties to a quiet reliance on the seasonal ebb and flow of tourism, where the proximity to the Atlantic Ocean dictates the pace of the calendar. Residents often gather near the banks of Lake Como, where the silence of the water offers a reprieve from the dense, complicated sprawl of the surrounding region. It is a place of working-class lyricism, where the history of the land is found not in grand monuments, but in the persistent, unyielding way the tide and the local waterways dictate the boundaries of the neighborhood.

About This South Belmar Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of South Belmar, New Jersey. Coordinates: 40.170947, -74.027359. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.
Detailed location data for South Belmar includes the ZIP code (07719), telephone area code (732, 848), county seat of Monmouth County (Freehold), and school district assignment.
Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
