ABOUT BELMONT SHORE

SPEND AN HOUR. SPEND THE DAY!

Charming, Relaxed, Stylish & Unique!

Nestled along the Coast in the southeast corner of Long Beach, Belmont Shore is a charming beachside community home to over two hundred and fifty businesses. The owners and staff of many of our businesses are as much a part of the neighborhood as the residents. The care and concern for the community is part of what makes the area so special.

Second Street and the fifteen intersecting side streets make up the business district of Belmont Shore. This business corridor lies in the heart of the exclusive seaside community, affectionately referred to by locals as "the Shore". The neighborhood features beautiful Spanish style homes from the 1920's and 30's as well as charming beach bungalows.

A place to mingle, meet up with old friends and make new ones, 2nd St. is where familiar faces including those of the dogs, stroll and gather outside local coffee shops or on the corner for impromptu conversations. Residents enjoy walking to 2nd St. to take care of daily errands at the local hardware store, markets, pharmacy, post office, dry cleaners and banks, where it doesn't feel so much like a task but an outing. Our library even has a waterfront view!

One of the great features of Belmont Shore is its proximity to the ocean. As its name implies, the Shore is hugged by water with the Pacific Ocean to the south, Alamitos Bay to the east, and to the north by Marine Stadium. Kitesurfers love the great ocean breezes found here. The calm water of the bay makes for great swimming, kayaking, and boating. The bay is also a great beach for families, where every visitor is just steps to the water on the long, curved stretch of sand. For a romantic adventure take an authentic gondola ride through the canals of Naples with an Italian singing gondolier.
