Silver Strand State Beach, California

2 massive bodies of water, miles of beaches covering both the ocean and the bay, great swells, fishing, and bird-watching opportunities, as well as a famous bike path to see it all isn’t nearly enough to explain the surprisingly solitary beauty of the sand spit known as Silver Strand State Beach. The State Beach divides the Pacific from the San Diego Bay, and double the beaches means double the fun right? RIGHT! At least we think so, as avid water-recreationalists and beachcombers alike enjoy the entirety of the area as a great place to get out on the water and bask in the glorious SoCal sun.
