Luxury Boat Rentals & Private Charters in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ

If your idea of luxury on the Jersey Shore includes expert attention, a well-stocked boat and the thrill of a hot striper bite, this six-hour private charter is built around that goal. The operator runs one trip most days during spring and then again in October through December, giving you flexible start times and a focused fishing window when stripers move close to shore. Up to six anglers are accommodated and all fishing rods and tackle are provided—bring your own gear only if you prefer.

Logistics are straightforward: trips leave from Total Marine at Seaview in Belmar and require a deposit to reserve a date, with the balance due on the day of the trip by cash or credit card. For groups who prioritize time on the bite and a private boat with experienced handling, this charter delivers a consummate fishing day rather than an aimless cruise.

Bentley pontoon rentals are the archetype of indulgent, easygoing days on Barnegat Bay. Available as half- or full-day rentals (half day 9am–1pm or 1pm–5pm; full day 9am–5pm), the boats seat up to eight people and come with life jackets and a full tank of fuel. Renters must be 25 or older and drive the boat themselves—no captain is provided—so these rentals are best for groups comfortable sharing piloting duties or enjoying a slow social cruise.

Rates are supplied by the operator and differ if you hold a boater’s license; a deposit is required to reserve a date. Food, drinks and swimming are permitted, and ladders make water access easy. If you prize space, shade and the option to pull up at Tices Shoal for a swim, a Bentley pontoon offers a private, comfortable base for a luxury day on the water.

For groups who want the comfort of a pontoon with a touch more performance, the 90 hp Bentley rental from Toms River bridges convenience and capability. Available in four- or eight-hour blocks, the boats seat up to eight, include a 10-ft bimini for shade and Bluetooth stereo for music, and come with a full tank of fuel. No boating license is required; the operator offers on-site boater safety certification so you can be on the water legally and confidently the same day.

This option suits friends or families who want a larger range on the bay and a reliable powerplant for reach and responsiveness. There’s a clear check-in expectation—arrive 30 minutes early for orientation—and a 72-hour cancellation window for a full refund if needed, which adds a welcome level of booking flexibility for luxury travelers planning around weather or schedules.

A private tiki tour compresses luxury into a concentrated experience: a 120-minute curated cruise on a vessel equipped with a tiki hut and onboard bathroom, all designed for comfort and easy celebration. Operators welcome food and drinks aboard and will allow half an hour of decorating for events when requested—making this a natural choice for birthdays, anniversaries or small corporate outings where a stylish, contained experience matters more than a long-range cruise.

Children under 13 must wear lifejackets in compliance with state law, and the small capacity (up to six) ensures an intimate feel. If you’re balancing time constraints with a desire for a memorable, private atmosphere on Barnegat Bay, the tiki tour delivers a polished, turnkey option.

For travelers who equate luxury with intimacy and agency rather than size or speed, an hourly tandem kayak rental offers undeniable charm. These rentals are ideal for short exploratory paddles along the shoreline or into quieter backwaters where bigger boats can’t go. The model supports spontaneous planning: rent by the hour and shape the outing to tide and light.

Kayaks are also a good complement to a larger luxury day—use them for shoreline excursions after a pontoon anchors at a sandbar, or as a quieter alternative for part of the group. Because rentals are hourly, this option works well for travelers on a tight schedule who still want an active, waterborne experience.

When the day calls for speed, a one-hour jet ski rental is the most direct answer. Operators supply orientation and safety briefings so riders with no experience can become comfortable quickly—the equipment can hit up to 55 mph, and crafts typically hold two people. Minimum age requirements and driver agreements are enforced; drivers must be 18 or older. If you want a short, intense blast of open-water excitement, this is the simplest way to get it.

Because conditions and operator oversight determine how aggressively you can push the machine, choose a reputable provider who emphasizes safety. Jet skis are best paired with a clear plan for where you’ll ride, pickup logistics and a return window that avoids late-afternoon chop or thunderstorm risk.
