Location Information
Crystal Pier @ Pacific Beach
Here are all the details for beautiful Crystal Pier at Pacific Beach!
Meeting Place
Typically, I meet clients at the entrance to the pier, right outside Crystal Pier Hotel’s office space. See the map below for the location. Crystal Pier is located at 4500 Ocean Blvd, San Diego, CA 92109
Parking
Free street parking is a possibility, especially on Garnet, but plan to park in a pay lot if needed. I usually park in the lot at 740 Hornblend Street and use the ParkMobile site to pay.
Bring
Bribes for kids, a towel, and an extra change of clothes (bottoms only) if you’re planning on going out to dinner afterward.
What to Wear
Please refer to my styling guide. I will email you the password to access Style & Select.
Shoes, etc.
I recommend flip-flops that you can kick off when you get to the sand. We don’t worry about “real shoes” for beach sessions. I’ll also ask you and your party to remove gum, hats, hair ties on wrists, sunglasses, and smart watches/FitBits.
Dinner Options
Pacific Beach boasts a number of great options for meals and treats. Here’s a link to some ideas.

If you’re a history buff like I am, maybe you’ll be interested in the history of Crystal Pier. You can find information about that here.
