About this adventure
Experience authentic coastal San Diego charm at the legendary Ocean Beach Farmers Market on the Wednesday evening before Thanksgiving. Taking over two pedestrianized blocks of Newport Avenue just steps from the sandy shore and the Ocean Beach Pier, the market buzzes with acoustic musicians, local farm produce stands, artisanal bakeries selling pumpkin and pecan pies, and international food stalls. Families gather on the seawall with warm hot chocolate and fresh cider to watch the golden Pacific sunset over the breaking waves. It's the ultimate laid-back, community-centered San Diego tradition to kick off the Thanksgiving long weekend with kids.
