Mission Beach is the center of a continuous stretch of beach known as The
Strand, which extends over two miles, beginning at the Mission Bay channel
entrance and ending at the north end of Pacific Beach. The Strand draws
large crowds in summer.
A somewhat narrow cement boardwalk parallel's
the entire beach. Walking, biking, bicycling, and related activities are
permitted on the boardwalk.
Various shops,
restaurants, and beach rental outfits surround the Mission Beach lifeguard
station, at the foot of Ventura Street beside a landmark roller coaster.
The north end of Mission Beach is bordered by residential properties, but
there are some stores available on Mission Boulevard, a block or so from
the beach.
