Ocean Beach

San Diego

A beach with palm trees, people, and buildings in the background.
A beach with people sunbathing and swimming, a pier in the background, and waves crashing onto the shore.
A beach with palm trees, a lifeguard station, and people enjoying the shore.
A beach with waves, people, and a rocky shoreline.
A beach with palm trees, a pier, and people walking along the shore.
With a secluded sunbathing beach, swimming-only beach, special surf beach, volleyball beach and dog beach, San Diego’s “OB” sure takes beaches seriously.

Life really is a beach in Ocean Beach. After establishing one of the country’s first leash-free dog beaches, OB went on to give every type of beachgoer its own little haven. Some beaches are lined with grassy picnic areas, while others have shops and cafés. The San Diego Fishing Pier stands out with its rock pools. The OB Farmers Market on Wednesdays and the Ocean Beach Street Fair & Chili Cook-off in summer keep foodies happy.
