Mission Bay is a prime destination for
paddling enthusiasts. The vast, blue waters
of this aquatic playground offer a network
of serene waterways and inlets to explore.
Paddling is one of the best ways to
experience the bay's diverse natural
features.
The bay is divided into distinct sections,
each with its own notable characteristics.
It is home to a wide array of wildlife,
including numerous bird and fish species,
and features a nature reserve at its
northern end near Crown Point. One of the
bay's key attractions is SeaWorld, located
in the southeast quadrant.
Paddlers should be mindful of wind
conditions when circumnavigating the
expansive, open waters of the bay. They must
also watch for boat traffic when crossing
the main body to reach the islands within.
This commercialized environment offers a
wealth of outdoor recreation and tourist
activities for all ages. Rental facilities
around the bay provide access to a full
range of watercraft, from kayaks and jet
skis to windsurfing equipment.Camping is
available at Campland on the Bay. Campland
is the only place to allow tent camping in
the City of San Diego.
Fishing is a popular pursuit in Mission Bay,
with anglers able to target a variety of
species like perch, smelt, halibut,
barracuda, and bonito. However, certain
zones are restricted for swimming,
waterskiing, and personal watercraft use.
Arriving early is recommended to make the
most of the fishing opportunities.
Overall, Mission Bay's diverse aquatic
 landscape
and wealth of recreational options make it
an excellent destination for both casual and
adventurous water enthusiasts.
