Call it Work From Heaven.
San Diego workers took their jobs to the beach on Friday, sporting swim trunks below dress shirts while basking in the sun for their 9-to-5s.
More than 100 people took part in the gathering on idyllic Pacific Beach as part of a event curated by social media personality Scott Muirhead, who is known for his scenic and unconventional remote workplaces.
“Bring your laptop, surfboard, football, volleyball, spikeball… whatever you’ve got,” Muirhead posted on Instagram. “Business casual encouraged. (Corporate up top. Beach mode below.)”
Muirhead told NBC7 that he wanted to turn Pacific Beach “into the best office in San Diego.”
“San Diego is the best city I’ve ever lived in. I’ve been bouncing all over the country for the last five years and I am never leaving San Diego; it’s like heaven on earth,” he told the outlet.
Local businesses also got in on the fun. A bagel and coffee shop set up in the sand and a local sunglass company provided shades.
Beachgoers were seen peering at their laptops under umbrellas, or taking the full brunt of the 90-degree heat in the sun.
Muirhead sat at a wooden desk complete with a plant, stapler and laptop, next to a sign reading: “Make Remote Work Remote.”

Attendees said they even networked at the event.
“What better way to meet other people while working remote than to come out here and, I don’t know, get some networking in,” Daniel Luehm told NBC 7.
He was thankful not be working from the corporate-driven East Coast.
“What’s snow? We got the best snow in town,” Luehm said, referring to the Pacific Beach sand.
“Not a bad way to work at all.”
