Jackie PardueFebruary 27, 2018O.B. is a great place to visit. Great food, great people, great beach, & great fun. It's one of my favorite places in San Diego. I love it. Great friendly atmosphere, especially at night.
Upvoted 3 weeks ago- One of my favorite beaches in San Diego. Newport Ave. is full of cool shops and yummy food places! Def. an interesting melting pot of people in this neck of the woods!
- Ocean Beach has the most unique people and places around! You can't be the character that this type of beach town has! Food: Hodad's, Nico's, Pizza Port, OB Noodle, Lazy Hummingbird...it's endless!
Christina KosakMarch 21, 2013If you want a tat or peircing go to heffes! Very clean professional chill and friendly. They talk to you to keep you calm and always use new clean fresh needles straight from the package.
The Most Interesting Man in the WorldMarch 12, 2014I befriended a parrot native to the area. He was so good at mimicking my voice that I had him stand in for me on several business calls.
If apartment hunting check for large trees in close proximity to your windows.. you will hear the loud parrots (most the year) having morning/evening hoopla's. Annoying!
Desiree WolfordJune 21, 2012Every time you visit pick up one piece of trash that isn't yours (and everything that is). Keep our beaches clean!Upvoted 4 days ago- Check out the Farmers Market on Wednesdays. Great produce, live music, and local artisans.
I love OB. People are friendly, plenty of bars and good food all by the beach. No place better in San Diego.
Veronica ArmsteadJuly 13, 2017Get there super early, just after sunset & you'll find the best sea shells!
AndreaAugust 1, 2012Ya must see Psycar play live! Very talented Band and positive music that re-energize your body! Keep doing it Psydcar! Love y'all!
Michael FergusonJune 13, 2014It was beautiful at the beach today. Sunny and the water was actually warm. Tess (my dog) and I had a great afternoon together.
Mary Hobb Jacobs BaileyFebruary 12, 2019Dogs are welcome unleashed. So much fun to watch them run and play.
BRINK MagazineJuly 28, 2012Great people watching here at Ocean Beach. Walk all the way down to the end of the pier and breathe in life, you're alive! brinkmagonline.com
Where the 8 meets the sand there is a place called Neverland. Stay a while. Stick your toes in the sand and say, at least for a day. Isn't life grand!

But a long beach, but very wide with reasonably clean sand.
Sit on the bench in the little park at the end of Del Mar Avenue:) Go to the end of Orchard Avenue and walk down the stairs to the walkway at the bottom of the cliffs!
Carolyn MarkleyMay 3, 2010I grew up in this area it has laid back. ,atmosphere, not like mission beach.Enjoy walking Down io the beach and watching the ocean and the people.
Ocean Beach's only weekly dance party. Ocean Boogie every Saturday at Nick's By The Pier featuring DJs Unite and Peril. You haven't really done OB till you come down and get your Boogie on...
Justin ThomasAugust 18, 2010The paddle out for the 4th of July is life alteringly rad. Only missed one in 10 years.
Be sure to overreact about the "scary" bums and "weird" hippies. Eat at Hodad's, then go immediately to your car and speed back up north the coast.
ShaneNchrystal Hackney-BowersNovember 19, 2013Tons of kelp washed ashore. Ignore the potheads hanging out eating bananas.
***best*** sandwiches!! Haha although they carry alot of craft beer too
Christian DJuly 19, 2010most relaxing and laid back beach in San Diego, the pier and the cliffs are a bonus!
Eric BidwellAugust 6, 2009check out Sunset Cliffs south of the pier, bonus points if you spot people smoking out of the cliff pipes ;)
Pat's Liquor on voltaire... your new favorite spot for supplies
