One of the best sunset views in San Diego is from Ocean Beach Pier. Head to the end of the pier for the best views. Just be careful not to trip on a stray fishing line! It's a popular spot for locals to fish, so there's often fishing poles cast on the sides of the pier.

Some beaches—particularly those within the jurisdiction of the State Parks system—close down at sunset. Others close at 2:00 AM and re-open at 6:00 AM, and some never really close. Unless you're a registered guest of an official campground, you are never allowed to stay overnight at any beach.

This is when the risk of falling victim to an act of violent crime can go up, so it's always recommendable to walk in pairs after nightfall or take a bus, train, or rideshare if you don't have a vehicle.
