What Locals Say about Imperial Beach

  • Pattipatricialopez
    "it's a family friendly environment and yet it's also a tourist destination so keep a good eye on your children. Never let your guard down. "

  • Danny G.
    "IB is great in many ways. There is no large corporate or chain businesses other than 7-11, no buildings allowed higher than 3-story, much of the beach area houses were built in the 50’s and 60’s. Many are now remodeled and nice. The IB pier is quite beautiful with regular fishermen, surfers and people walking. "
