Spend the morning watching surfers and dolphins and afternoons watching the beachgoers along the boardwalk, and evenings gazing at the spectacular sunsets over the ocean.

NEIGHBORHOOD: MISSION BEACH
Mission Beach is one of San Diego's most iconic coastal neighborhoods, built on a narrow peninsula with the Pacific Ocean on one side and Mission Bay on the other. Ocean Front Walk runs the length of the ocean side, a flat boardwalk shared by surfers, cyclists, joggers, and visitors moving between Belmont Park to the north and the quieter south end of the peninsula.
Oceana 3 sits right in the heart of the boardwalk. Shops, markets and restaurants including Olive Cafe, Miss B’s Coconut Club, Guava Beach, Molly’s, and Better Buzz Coffee are all within a short walk. Belmont Park with its oceanfront dining and the historic Giant Dipper roller coaster is a 15-minute walk along the beach.
