48 Hours in San Diego: Highlights Itinerary for 2 Days
"Afterwards, take yourself to the south east corner of the Gaslamp area and locate Petco Park (it’s kind of hard to miss). This giant baseball stadium is home to the San Diego Padres and, baseball fan or not (I’m not), is a pretty spectacular sight. If you’re in San Diego during the baseball season, tickets are affordable and make for a great night out. Otherwise, you can take a stadium tour, or just climb up onto the grassy bank opposite and have a nosey from there."
"The San Diego Padres play at Petco Park, which you can find downtown. Thanks to the year-round sun, a ball game is usually a good excuse to sit outside at any point in the season. If baseball isn’t your thing, though, the stadium also hosts a variety of other sports and concerts."
"There are numerous historic buildings located in this area, dating back to the early 1800s. It was the first European settlement in California. One notable building is Whaley House which Travel Channel named as the most haunted house in America."
"San Diego State Historic Park marks the founding of the first European settlement in California and encompasses many of San Diego’s original buildings. Museums, shops, theater and restaurants can be found in this six-block area."
"Built in 1825 after attacks from the Spaniards’ enemies waned, Old Town San Diego was the first town in the city to have ever been built."
"Silver Strand State Beach is made up of beaches lining both the Pacific Ocean and San Diego Bay. The beaches are connected by pedestrian tunnels under the busy street. Popular activities include camping, swimming, surfing, boating, water-skiing, volleyball, and picnicking."
"I use to like this buffet but it has gone downhill recently. There is another choice in Pacific Beach that is way better."
"Partake in the traditional Churrasco without boarding a plane to Brazil. Skewers of meat are slow-roasted over a mesquite flame after being marinated in simple seasonings. The meat waiter will slice it freshly off the skewer until you throw in the towel."
"Port Brewing Company is known for making quality, classic California craft beers, but the The Lost Abbey is all about paying homage to traditional Belgian brews — all the way down to the medieval monks who used to make them. This brewery is steeped in church themes, having named one of its locations The Confessional. It’s most popular for its sour Duck Duck Gooze, Framboise de Amorosa, and Deliverance (a blend of brandy and one of their stout brews)."
"I love Lost Abbey’s theme and their motto “For sinners and saints alike” stuck with me. 😀 The beers are very interesting but intense, highly alcoholic and not for the faint of heart. My favorite and widely available beer from Lost Abbey is Lost and Found. There you have it – 20 of my favorite and THE best restaurants and breweries in San Diego!"
"2007 San Elijo Ave., Cardiff 92007 Lost Abbey’s Cardiff tasting room, cheekily named The Confessional, serves beers from its namesake, as well as from Port Brewing and The Hop Concept. One fan raved about the fact that visitors can grab food from the pizza place next door or from Seaside Market for the perfect beer accompaniments."
"Where: 1220 University Ave, San Diego, CA 92103 Over the years, Gossip Grill has blossomed into a full patio bar and restaurant with a dance floor. The restaurant serves American comfort food, and the lively place is decked out with feminine inspired art, fabulous chandeliers, and a foliage facade outdoor patio bar with fire pits. As the sun sets, Gossip transforms into a dance nightclub for the ladies, but don't worry, the dance floor is open to men and everything in between."
