Between Coronado and Imperial Beach, miles of the “Strand” attracts families with its wide expanses, gentle waves, fire rings, surf fishing, grunion running (see Children’s Attractions) and, unique to San Diego beaches, clamming. The name Silver Strand comes from the tiny silver shells that dot the sand on the oceanside. Pedestrian tunnels lead to the beach on the bayside, where the water is warmer and calmer.
