The area is popular with tourists, especially in summer, but residents who have purchased Mission Beach real estate also enjoy the year-round opportunity to swim, surf and walk along the sand. There are many modern homes and condos in the area, in addition to luxury real estate, which is unsurpassed. There's a boardwalk along the entire beach, and West Mission Bay Drive links up with Interstates 5 and 8 to provide easy access to San Diego.
