San Diego, California Overview

It's one thing for a chamber of commerce to brag that they have the best weather in the nation, but in the case of San Diego, it is actually true. Blessed with more than 300 days of sunshine and temperatures that are nearly always in the 70s, California's second largest city is an ideal choice for a mid-winter (or dog-days-of-summer) escape. But there's way more to this city than just basking in the sun. Couples find plenty of respite in the city's delectable dining scene, its wealth of spas and a bevy of romantic and quiet beachside resorts. Families never tire of San Diego's attractions, such as Balboa Park, Legoland California, the San Diego Zoo and SeaWorld.

Regardless of why you travel, or whom you travel with, you'll find the natural beauty of this part of Southern California to be absolutely stunning. Get out and about on a kayak tour of Mission Bay or a mountain bike tour, or explore the city like a local in the Gaslamp Quarter, a vibrant neighborhood filled with trend-setting restaurants and nightlife. Other San Diego highlights include La Jolla Shores, a spectacular 2000-acre tract of coastal wilderness, a number of world-class golf courses, including Torrey Pines Golf Course and the La Costa Golf Resort, a relaxing champagne brunch cruise on the beautiful San Diego Bay, or a wine tour of the surrounding Baja California area.
