The Pacific Beach center point is approximately 1 mile north of Mission Bay Park.
Summer is absolutely the best time to visit Pacific Beach. The weather is warm during the day with just a touch of fog in the early mornings. However, summer is also the busiest time of year, as college students and families off from school enjoy staying in this prime area of San Diego. Rates are the highest during the summer and rooms are often difficult to find because people book them well in advance, so don't hesitate to book early.
Spring is a slower season for the San Diego area, except during spring break, when again college students and families come to relax and enjoy all that Pacific Beach has to offer. If you come before or after spring break, the rates are lower and rooms are easier to find. You'll see plenty of greenery and wildflowers in the hills after the winter rains and there are fewer crowds at the attractions.
Winter is the slowest season, except during major winter holidays. The days are short and, even though the area doesn't receive much rain, only around 8-10 inches annually, November through early March is when the rains fall. There are fewer visitors and you can easily find solitude as you walk along the beach. Rooms are easier to find and rates are lower, except during the holidays, so you shouldn't have any trouble scoring a good deal on a room.
Mid-September through mid-November experiences some of the finest weather all year. The fog doesn't roll in, the days are nice and warm, the trees are turning colors, and the college kids and families have left. You'll find lower rates than summer, with plenty of availability during these special months.
