"The best family-friendly resort in San Diego, sprawling Paradise Point sits on a small island in Mission Bay, wrapped in white sand beaches. The property features 5 heated, outdoor swimming pools (1 for adults only), a private marina with watersports (paddleboards, kayaks, jet skis, sailboats, and more), and plenty of kid-friendly amenities, including firepits for s’mores, complimentary lawn games, a kids’ club, and much more. Spacious rooms, suites, and bungalows sleep families of up to 5, all with private patios or balconies, most with views of the garden, lagoon, or bay."

"Paradise Point is a San Diego resort and spa where it is both beautiful and relaxing to explore as it receives one of their huge variety of pampering services. With beautiful pools and gardens full of natural beauty, you will want to stay at this San Diego spa resort for weeks. Located on an island in Mission Bay, the resort itself spans 44 acres and offers amenities such as a golf course, five pools, bonfire pits, and a marina."

"Paradise Point Resort & Spa is located on its own 44-acre private island so there is quite a bit to do here including a swim in one of the five pools. The pools are all a bit different. Of course, there’s one especially for adults and a larger family pool with poolside food and drink service."

"The fittingly, but lazily named, Windansea Beach in La Jolla is a mecca for surfers. This exposed stretch of coast is known for its high-speed winds and rough waters, perfect for those looking for a rush out on the waves. Windansea has appeared in many surf movies and documentaries over the years due to its reputation for huge swells."

"Torrey Pines has long stretches of serene sand ideal for family fun and laying out in the sun, but the real draw here is lush 300-foot sea cliffs that tower above it providing spectacular horizon views and nature walks through wildflowers and other native vegetation. The north section of the beach is geared toward families with calmer waters for swimming (there's also a lagoon for younger kids to safely swim). The south section has bigger waves and attracts surfers along with sunbathers who prefer to lay out nude."

"For a truly unique San Diego hiking experience you simply can’t get anywhere else, head to Torrey Pines State Beach. Torrey Pines offers a multitude of trails, and none is particularly challenging. However, the views are spectacular."

"With dark sand and a rocky shoreline, you’ll get a great dramatic landscape to photograph at Torrey Pines State Beach!"

"San Diego has its own version of Central Park: The Waterfront Park, located along the Embarcadero in Little Italy. Opened in 2014, it's become a family-favorite destination for locals. The 12-acre park is just a stone's throw from the bay and is decked out with tons of innovative ways to entertain kids including a splash pad and slide––but it's the giant fountain, with its many jets, that is the park's main attraction."

"Located in downtown San Diego along the bay near Little Italy San Diego, Waterfront Park is perhaps best known for its interactive splash fountains and its extensive, family-friendly open spaces. Outdoor movies in the park and other free events are held here in summer. (Location: Downtown San Diego)"

"If you can’t make it across the bridge to Coronado, you can walk along Harbor Bay to get a photo as well. The angle is a bit different and it’s a good deal harder to park but it can be done."

"The Fish Market is one of the best romantic restaurants San Diego CA has to offer if you and your partner love seafood or want to have a sushi date. The ahi poke is a popular appetizer at the restaurant, or you can enjoy the calamari seasoned with salt and pepper and served with sweet chili and hot sauce. You can also share the oysters Rockefeller or the calamari steak served with seasoned, steamed veggies."

"The Fish Market offers an extensive seafood menu featuring fresh fish broiled just inches over the mesquite wood to seal in the flavor. We also offer shellfish specialties, chowders and cioppino, seafood cocktails, smoked fish and pasta appetizers. Open for dinnerDress code: CasualPhone: +1 619-232-3474"

"Located at 675 W Beech Street, Craft & Commerce is Taxidermy & old books line the walls of this hip gastropub, serving seasonal eats & craft cocktails. Craft & Commerce is a pioneer in San Diego’s craft cocktail movement when it first debuted in San Diego’s Little Italy neighborhood in 2009. You may not be an immediate fan of the eclectic, taxidermy-filled bar, which has a library and African safari vibe to it, but the drinks are instant classics and way more exotic and delicious than your expectations."

"C&C was a pioneer in San Diego's craft cocktail movement when it debuted in San Diego's Little Italy neighborhood in 2009. You may not be an immediate fan of the eclectic, taxidermy-filled bar, which has a library-meets-African-safari-lodge vibe, but the drinks are instant classics. Don't miss the Lip Reader (a concoction of gin, pamplemousse rose, and absinthe), the Man Hands (mezcal and sherry), and the Del Boca Vista (a rum-heavy punch bowl)."

"Chez Loma’s chef and partner Alejandro Martinez treats his ingredients with love and respect, a perfect recipe for one of the most romantic restaurants in San Diego. The French-inspired cooking in a charming refurbished house add to the intimate chram."

"Le Parfait Paris is San Diego's newest patisserie and boulangerie. Located in the downtown Gaslamp District, Le Parfait Paris is distinctly chic with its large, open windows and street-side patio. Intentionally minimalistic in design, a bevy of colorful macarons and desserts are housed like fine jewelry in transparent refrigerated cases for roving eyes to adore."
