Pacific Beach

The boardwalk lifestyle, walkable dining on Garnet Avenue, and the most accessible coastal price point in San Diego.

About Pacific Beach

San Diego's beach lifestyle at its most alive.

Pacific Beach — universally known as PB — stretches from Mission Beach north to La Jolla, delivering the active beach lifestyle at the most accessible coastal price point in San Diego. The boardwalk, Mission Bay, Garnet Avenue's dining scene, and a genuine neighborhood energy make PB one of the most in-demand zip codes in the county. It's where people who want the ocean lifestyle without the $3M+ price tag consistently land — and where they consistently stay.
