Top 5 San Diego Beaches

There are many different reasons that San Diego appeals to me as a family travel destination. One of those reasons is because of the city’s beaches. There are so many different beaches in San Diego. I think you could spend a whole trip just going from beach to beach.

Here is a look at the top five San Diego beaches:
1. Mission Beach. This is one of the best San Diego beaches for kids. It has an old amusement park. It has a boardwalk that you can walk along. It is full of life and activity and fun things to do. It’s pretty and clean. And it’s even got places where older kids can play volleyball.

2. Imperial Beach. I know about this beach because I love sandcastles. It happens to be a place where there is a big annual sandcastle competition. I’d love to see that in person. And even if that’s not going on, the beach has a special place in my heart because it’s home to such a cool event.

3. La Jolla Cove and Beach. You can take the kids here to check out tide pools. This is also a good place to launch a family water adventure such as kayaking through the La Jolla coves. What a fun place to spend your San Diego vacation! There’s also a children’s swimming pool in this area.

4. Moonlight Beach. This beach in nearby Encinitas tricks a lot of people with its name. You would think it’s a place for romantic couples to spend a San Diego vacation. Actually, there are a bunch of fire pits and picnic tables here so it’s an ideal place to take the whole family for an afternoon at the beach.

5. Coronado Silver Strand. A lot of people like this beach because of the fact that it is a shallow beach with an easy slope to the sand. This makes it very safe for children compared to some of the other beaches in San Diego. Hotels in this area are expensive, though, so unless you can find good San Diego hotel deals in the area, you might want to stick to one of the other four beaches.
