35 San Diego Tourist Attractions: Top Spots for Fun Sightseeing
"If you want a beach that’s bit more lively, you can head down to Pacific Beach and Mission Beach. Both beaches are great for people-watching on the boardwalk. Make sure to grab drinks at a beachy bar, and even perfect your surfing skills at The Wave House. Yep, at The Wave House, you can surf an artificial wave (or watch others do it)!"
"Catch a morning surf lessons from Surfari Surf School at north Mission Beach, and enjoy some prime people-watching on the Pacific Beach Boardwalk while you catch your breath. You’ll have worked up quite an appetite, so sate it the way a local surfer would—with fish tacos from Oscars Mexican Seafood."
"You’ll find South Mission Beach at the extreme south end of the Mission Beach Peninsula. It’s one of the widest beaches in the city, so it’s a great place to play a game of beach volleyball or basketball. This beach is slightly more subdued than some of the others in the area, but it still gets crowded, so join the party as early as possible."
"You can always find beautiful photos to share from the beaches of San Diego. The photo below is actually a rare occurrence in Coronado where you can see a sunken ship at low tide. More: Where to Find the Sunken Ship in San Diego"
"Spend some time on Coronado Beach, then grab lunch at Coronado Brewing Company before heading back on the ferry. Stroll up the Embarcadero and visit the Maritime Museum of San Diego and USS Midway Museum. After gazing at ships both antique and modern, walk north to Little Italy, where you can sample more local beers at Bottlecraft before dining at one of the neighborhood’s fantastic restaurants, such as Herb & Wood."
"This wide beach is one of San Diego's most picturesque thanks to its soft white sand and sparkly blue water. The historic Hotel Del Coronado…"
"Coronado Beach has been named the number one beach in the United States in the 2012 survey by Stephen P."
"One of the larger farmers markets in San Diego, the Little Italy Mercato has 200 vendors to peruse on a sunny (or rainy) Saturday morning. Come here for fresh fruits and veggies, meat, fish, eggs, olive oil, artisan goods, and flowers, among other products. It’s also famous for its freshly-caught sea urchin if you want to add some extra excitement to your morning."
"There are a lot of farmers’ markets to take advantage of in San Diego and the Saturday ‘Mercato’ Street Market in Little Italy is one of the best. It’s one of the largest markets in the city and happens from 8 am to 2 pm every Saturday, rain or shine. It’s also one of the best things to do in Little Italy to get a feel for the communal nature of this neighborhood."
"We are starting the week off with Saturday because in my humble opinion, theLittle Italy Mercato Farmers Marketis the best farmers market in San Diego!. It’s the most popular San Diego farmers market, and my personal favorite. 🙂 The Little Italy farmers market is located in downtown San Diego, so the only issue is you might have trouble finding parking."
"You can simply show up at the gate to enter Prohibition meaning that no prior reservation is needed. It is a club with a 1920’s retro vibe designed for those who would like to step into the Great Gatsby era for an evening. Guest also enjoy the creative and unique cocktail menu such as the “These are not the droids you’re looking for” cocktail featuring tequila, lime, allspice, Averna and apple Jarritos soda."
"To enter Prohibition, simply show up (no reservations are accepted) and find the door marked Law Office of Eddie O'Hare. It is a speakeasy with a 1920's vibe designed for those who would like to step into the Great Gatsby era for an evening. A dress code is enforced so no shorts, flip flops or sandals, or baseball caps on Fridays and Saturdays."
"The sugar rush should get you started for a night out in the Gaslamp District club scene; if you prefer something chill, the swanky retro cocktail bar Prohibition Lounge is a great way to finish the night."
"Brigantine invites you to explore the beach lifestyle of Coronado Island. The restaurant is located across from the Hotel Del Coronado, which is a must-see for anyone visiting the island. The historic hotel offers tours where you can learn the history of its celebrity status."
"More than worth a visit if you’re in the Gaslamp Quarter, Neighborhood features healthy food for everyone from the meat lover to the gluten avoider. Guests will also find around 27 local brews on tap and many more kinds of bottled beer."
"Eddie V’s will be serving a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings this year – complete with Brioche Sage Stuffing and hand-whipped potatoes, to name a few!. If you’re not feeling festive, you can always order from the regular menu; no one could blame you for eyeing the Chilean sea bass or lobster tacos at this well-known seafood destination in La Jolla. Both menus will be served from 11:00am-9:00 pm."
