Pacific Beach

Nestled between La Jolla and Mission Beach, this little town is a haven for those who love sand, surf, and beach nightlife. You can spend days roaming around Pacific Beach exploring the wide range of restaurants, pubs and bars, beach shops, and of course the granddaddy of them all – the beach. Escaping to Pacific Beach for your turn at fun in the sun is a great way to get in touch with your inner San Diegan.

The Pacific Beach neighborhood revolves almost entirely around beach life, divorced from the urban life that dominates other San Diego neighborhoods. Ocean Walk, the boardwalk connecting Pacific and Mission Beaches is the place to be for a morning run or sunset walk along the beach. Rent a bike, strap on your rollerblades, glide on your skateboard, or stroll with your friends on its clean, wide surface. Head over to Crystal Pier and walk out to the end for beautiful views of the ocean and shoreline. Keep an eye out for whales and dolphins, or watch the local surfers hang ten on the pier’s north side. There is a wide variety of restaurants and bars within walking distance along Ocean Walk; grab brunch at JRDN’s, craft beers at PB Ale House, or Taco Tuesday Happy Hour at World Famous. Lounge on the wide, sandy beach or play, surf, and swim in the water. Never miss an opportunity to watch for the green flash as the sun dips into the Pacific Ocean.
