Review:
Mission Beach is located in the San Diego Mission Beach community, on a sandbar between Mission Bay and the Pacific Ocean.
This beautiful, wide sandy beach stretches for two miles between the San Diego River estuary, Mission Bay Park and the neighboring community of Pacific Beach. There is a popular boardwalk on both the bay side and ocean side.
A jetty, located at the south end of the beach offers a nice grassy area and a walkway. The beach is very popular and almost always packed with sunbathers and swimmers, and is great for surfing, biking, skateboarding, horseshoes and much more. There are basketball and volleyball courts and a recreation center on the bay side. While nude sunbathing is forbidden, thong bikinis are tolerated.
