Overcast. Cool.

Glitzy LA may capture all the attention, but if you want to wet your feet and soak up the Southern California beach scene in serious style, catch a wave to affluent, golf-coursed, blessed-by-nature San Diego.
Its superb coastline, near-perfect climate and Mediterranean facade make it the quintessential Southern California beach city, but there's no chance to develop ennui. The smorgasbord of museums, zoos, animal parks and beaches will have you wondering which way to run next.
San Diego Tours & Activities
Day Trip to Ensenada, Mexico

WWII Warbird Rides with Loops & Rolls

Suggested Itineraries: San Diego
There's more to the scene in San Diego than sunshine and surf. The Ocean Beach Kite Festival makes the most of the wind, with kite making, decorating and flying competitions in March. The Ocean Beach Street Fair and Chili Cook-Off is a popular two-day street bash in June. In mid-July the US Open Sandcastle Competition is held in Imperial Beach, south of Coronado.
The Harbor Parade of Lights in December goes one better than a Christmas tree, with dozens of decorated illuminated boats floating in San Diego's harbor.
