Bel Haven Paddlesports is a small, family-owned retailer and paddling center in the United States that serves paddlers in the Mid-Atlantic region. It offers gear for canoeing and kayaking, alongside sales and service, while running rental trips that function as brief exploratory outings and help customers access local water venues. The company also runs a year-round test paddling program, enabling people to try gear before purchasing. In this capacity it acts as a regional paddling hub, combining equipment access with support for outdoor water activities.

Founded in 1953 by William Bell and his twin brothers, the operation began with six canoes and a beach on a dam-created lake in the New Jersey Pinelands. It remains family-owned and operated and emphasizes the opportunity to experience the surrounding environment, rivers, and paddling. The Bel Haven Lake and Marina serves as a focal point for paddlers in the region, providing access to the lake and related recreational services year-round.
