Imperial Beach – Southern California Classic
Located a few minutes north of the Mexico border and about a half-hour south of Downtown San Diego, Imperial Beach is the most southwesterly city in the continental U.S. IB boasts miles of untouched beaches with big surf, open space and wetlands, popular with surfers and local youth.
Locals and tourists are not the only ones attracted to IB—migratory birds and wildlife flock to IB year-round. The estuary; 2,531 acres of wetlands is the largest saltwater marsh in Southern California with a visitor’s center offering daily walking tours. This area is the last haven for more endangered species than anywhere else in the world.
IB is known as Classic Southern California because the town is one of the last untouched beach towns in Southern California. Swim, surf, take a walking tour of public art, go on a nature walk or experience the world-renowned estuary in IB! www.cityofib.com.
