Things to Do in Mission Beach

Mission Beach offers miles of oceanfront boardwalk and a multitude of local experiences and outdoor activities for fun under the Southern California sun. Play in the surf at one of the area’s famous beaches, join in a game of beach volleyball, go fishing in Mission Bay, ride a historic seaside roller coaster at Belmont Park or learn about sea life and conservation at SeaWorld® San Diego. Check out these popular things to do in Mission Beach and Mission Bay during your getaway with the San Diego Beach King.

BELMONT PARK
Founded in 1925, Belmont Park is a beachfront amusement park and home to the historic Giant Dipper roller coaster and Plunge swimming pool. The Giant Dipper is a 2,600-foot-long wooden coaster and reaches speeds up to 48 mph. Enjoy more than a dozen thrilling rides, attractions, casual restaurants and gift shops. Entrance admission and parking are free.

THE PLUNGE®
