Mission Bay and Beaches Activities
In this year-round water wonderland, visitors can try a range of exciting water sports in designated public areas, including sailing, jet skiing, kite surfing, power boating, kayaking, fishing and swimming. There is no shortage of activities on dry land either. Mission Bay is popular for biking, jogging and skating and also has camping, picnic and playground facilities.
Mission Beach is home to Belmont Park, an amusement park and entertainment center which will keep the kids entertained with the Giant Dipper roller coaster, The Plunge indoor pool, The Wave House and arcades.
Mission Bay is also home to SeaWorld San Diego, one of the region's most popular family attractions, annual special events and plenty of things to do both on and off the water.
