With 17 miles of coastline and 4,600 acres around Mission Bay Park, San Diego offers a wide variety of beaches and amenities.

North Pacific Beach extends approximately one mile north of Crystal Pier to Pacific Beach Point. This beach is bordered by cliffs up to 75 feet in height with an extension of the boardwalk traversing the cliff-top along much of the south end of the beach.
Pacific Beach Located just south of Crystal Pier, Pacific Beach extends south before becoming Mission Beach. One of the busiest beach areas in the City of San Diego, Pacific Beach draws large crowds of locals and tourists in the summer.
Mission Bay Park consists of 4,235.6 acres, approximately 46% land and 54% water. There are 27 miles of shoreline, 19 of which are sandy beaches. Mission Bay was originally named False Bay by Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo, who came upon it in 1542. In those days, it was a vast tidal marsh that could confuse mariners into believing it was the larger bay just to the south, San Diego Bay. In 1944, civic leaders began a series of steps to dredge the marsh and create an aquatic recreation facility. Today, you will find that Mission Bay is used by motor boaters, sail boaters, rowers, water-skiers, picnickers, joggers, and swimmers. It is also home to many species of birds, fish, and other animals and has a nature reserve at it’s northern end near Crown Point.
Ocean Beach is a very wide beach, approximately one mile long, broken up by several rock jetties. A volleyball area can be found near the north end of the beach. Dog Beach, San Diego’s only 24 hour beach for dogs, is a sandy area at the north end of the beach. Ocean Beach has a hippy feel to the city and a great place to have a burger!
