Mission Beach is the narrow strip of land between Mission Bay and the Ocean. There is about 6 miles of "boardwalk" running the perimeter of the area. Other than being completely flat, it offers a beach view for it's entire length. The beach isn't the only thing to view since the area attracts volleyball players, surfers, skateboarders, sunbathers and a host of bodies to die for. Officially, Mission Beach starts at Pacific Beach Dr. and goes south. The boardwalk, however, extends further north into Pacific Beach til it begins to reach La Jolla. The map location in the description is for the Pacific Beach Drive start location, and the run heads south from this point.
Tuesday is Taco Tuesday at Guava Beach bar & grill, about halfway along the Mission Blvd strip a block from the beach. Guava Beach has some really decent mahi fish tacos - normally a platter with 2 is $6.75 with arroz and frijoles, but on Tuesdays the special is for ala carte, a perfect little bit of protein after a run or swim on Mission Beach. $1.50 Chicken & Beef / $2.50 Mahi & Carne Asada Tuesdays!
