Placed in reserve in 1835, this is one of the oldest sites in the U.S. dedicated to public recreational usage. It is named after the Spanish explorer Vasco Núñez de Balboa.
Beginning of 5 different trails of varying difficulty through Balboa Park. Map posted at the corner of 6th & Upas or check out here: http://www.balboapark.org/maps/maps.php Leggi tutto.
Bring a friend and surprise them with the view and wobbly walk over Kate Sessions Canyon. Leggi tutto.
Not the largest little Italy but packed with all sorts of cool stuff to check out
Go to the tamale stand at corner of Date and State. They sell tons of fresh produce and the owner of the farm ALWAYS throws a few 'extras' in for free :))
If you take the San Diego Trolley here, arrive at least 2 listed trolley arrival times before your connecting departure as officials in San Diego don't believe in timed transfers between agencies.
One of the best views of the downtown skyline, perfect for people getting in a cardio workout!
If you are in San Diego, go and visit The Fish Market. Best fish restaurant in the world has great location in SD and awesome view. Fish, wine at dinner will let you feel the difference!
This ship was built in 1863 as a full-rigged iron windjammer named 'Euterpe'. In 1901 she was renamed 'Star of India' & re-rigged as a barque ship (three or more masts).
Take the ferry to Coronado Island from the Pier, it's $9.50 round trip. Once there, there's shops and dining. Otherwise you can take a free shuttle bus to Hotel Del Coronado, a must see.
Commissioned in 1945, USS Midway (CV-41) was an aircraft carrier of the US Navy and is the only remaining aircraft carrier of the WW II era that is not an Essex-class ship.
A national salute to Bob Hope and the military installation next to The Fish Market
Seaport Village was built on landfill where the Spanish expedition of 1782 buried those who had died of scurvy. In later years, it served as a railroad yard to send items east that arrived by ship.
Great place to walk with the people you love or just to get away from stress
Miguel's Cocina white sauce. Point Loma Seafood. Close to downtown and the beach. Bay, Coronado, and skyline views. Rad part of SD.
Beautiful area...recommend this. Be sure to check it out when there is sunshine too.
Trails, unspoiled beaches, and museums makes it a perfect Sunday outing. The ocean view alone is worth the trip.
Go to the last park entrance up on the hill to the right, then use the ropes for a small repel down to the beach. This area is the best of Sunset Cliffs.
Are you checking out the Roller Coaster or the Boardwalk? Enjoy your day at the beach and then head Downtown to eat dinner at House of Blues San Diego or catch an awesome show!
Some call it "The Jewel" of San Diego. Is it because sodium pentothal once made me reveal it as the location of a stash of untold riches? Probably not. Because as far as you know, that never happened.
Great sunset photography location along the boardwalk. Bring your split ND filter or plan on bracketing and arrive early in season to stake your spot before the crowds arrive.
The park preserves & recreates the old town from shortly after the Mexican War of Independence through the Bear Flag Revolt. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.
Interesting place. I had no idea that a group of Mormons helped build San Diego.
Situated just across the Big Bay from downtown San Diego, Coronado is most notably known for two famous structures, the historic Hotel del Coronado and the distinctive San Diego-Coronado Bridge.
The hotel opened in 1888 as the largest resort hotel in the world and the first to use electrical lighting. It was declared a historic landmark in 1977. Rooms 3502 and 3327 are reported to be haunted!
Absolutely beautiful and a MUST SEE! Breakfast on the outside patio...perfect way to start your day!
Take out a sailboat and sail the bay. Great wind and great views. Enjoy San Diego.
It is such a beautiful scenic scene! From the pier you get to see San Diego's most famous postcard scenery, and also Coronado Bridge and a small and yet charming beach right in front the pier.
A park so small it can be missed easily but the view on downtown San Diego is amazing. Definitely worth a little detour.
Family friendly park, picnics, skating, great bay breeze and view. Right under the Coronado Bay Bridge.
Here it is, beer-lovers, your moment of Zen: a cobblestone patio filled with bamboo stalks and rock ponds. Sit and quaff one of 32 craft beers on tap or stroll the brook- and fruit tree¬–filled garden
16 Stone Beers on tap for growlers, tasters and pints. Plus a menu of flatbread pizzas, salads, and appetizers! Stone-made all-natural sodas and Kombucha Wonder Drink for non-alcoholic options.
Try the delicious Stone Barbeque Duck Tacos and a flight or two.
You cannot get better value than the IPA sampler. 21oz of delicious IPAs for less than the cost of one normal draft IPA ($8.80 vs $9.45). DO IT.
SD's 2nd largest craft brewery, it's also one of the first to dive into the world of Spirits! Take a tour & make sure to try the Sculpin IPA! Its popularity assures it rarely makes its way out of SD.
Flights are 3 beers of your choosing. I suggest trying some of Ballast Point's R&D beers, brewed at their Little Italy site.
No clue what malting, mashing or barrel aging means? Take the brewery tour! It's $5, incl. 4 tasters.
This is a good spot to hang out before a baseball game. Grab a pint of the Shipwrecked IPA.
When you have the chance, go have a chat with the brewers. These guys are super-friendly and will explain you everything you always wanted to know about brewing beers.
Great beers, great bartenders, really cool environment-you won't regret trying one of everything!
This is a usual hot spot not only because it's so close to the stadium and the race but because the food and drinks can't be beat.
I've not sampled all the beers - liked the sour, or any food. But the atmosphere is pretty slick and unique to downtown.
San Diego’s first licensed nano-brewery. Nano, as in small, hand-crafted batches, one point six barrels at a time (that's just 51 gallons each batch). Leggi tutto.
Go with Beer co. Sampler for $6. Actually make it $12 and try all 8 of Beer Co. Drafts. Cheers!
Too many beers on tap to try them all. Fortunately, they have flights (4 x 5oz tasters), so you can sample 4 of your favorites. Or 8. Or 12 ...
Know what you want before you come here. It isn't easy to order if you aren't familiar with the beers offered. Try the taphunter or ratebeer app for info on the beers listed.
Stoner Fries are the bomb! Your choice of cheese, meat, and veg cover a mound of tasty waffle fries. Yum!
In my humble opinion, Counterpoint is the best local watering hole around those parts (and many other parts as well). Friendly and fast service paired with great beer, wine, and a light fare menu mak
Puesto provides a seriously stunning setting for a menu that showcases its signature tacos as well as Mexican small plates and inspired craft cocktails.
A Mexican restaurant recognized for its atmosphere (local artists’ promotion, art filled walls, and punk scene) as well as its great food.
KBG's a community-tabled, flatscreen-filled beer haven pouring 16 taps like Mad River's Jamaican Ale and Avery Elie's Brown, plus inventive pub fare like the Dry Aged Duroc Pork Porterhouse. Leggi tutto.
Beers! Lots of 'em. Mostly American brews, but they have a nice collection of Belgian beers too. And the best of all: you can try them straight away in the tasting room.
Best selection in San Diego. Browse around and buy a beer you've never had before.
