San Diego Beach Towns: Pacific Beach, Mission Beach, and Ocean Beach

Anyone familiar with San Diego knows the distinct vibes of these three beach towns: Pacific Beach (PB) for the young and lively, Mission Beach for the grown-up beachgoers, and Ocean Beach for the free spirits.

Pacific Beach is a great spot during the day, but if you’re pushing past your 30s, it’s not the scene you want to find yourself in after dark. Mission Beach tends to attract those who’ve outgrown PB’s nightlife and prefer a more upscale, laid-back lifestyle. Over in Ocean Beach, the locals embrace a more bohemian, carefree approach to life.

Despite their differences, these towns share a love for outdoor living. Mission and Pacific Beach are connected by a lively boardwalk where you can skateboard, bike, jog, walk your dog, or just people-watch. Bringing a date to PB? It’s as cliché as bringing sand to the beach. While PB and Mission Beach residents are lined up at Starbucks, Ocean Beach locals are rallying to keep chain coffee shops out.

But there’s one more thing all three towns share: termites.

The beach climate that’s perfect for humans is also ideal for termites. Many of the quaint, elevated homes in these areas have drywood termites up top and subterranean termites below.

If you own a home in Pacific Beach, Mission Beach, or Ocean Beach, a comprehensive termite warranty is essential. This should cover both types of termites and include an annual inspection. And if your current termite company isn’t crawling into the tight spaces under your house, it’s time to give California Termite a call. Our inspectors leave no inch unchecked—yes, even the crawlspace.
