Imagine yourself in San Diego, California—and then make it happen! Whether you’re visiting for business, pleasure, or a mix of both, Southwest offers a variety of travel options to help you transform your California dream into a reality. San Diego is located in the southernmost region of the state ...along the bucolic, surfer-friendly Pacific coastline. The weather here is warm and inviting, with temperatures averaging in the 70s year round. But believe it or not, San Diego holds a few gems that outshine the sunshine. From stunning beaches with breathtaking views to an exceptional restaurant scene and more, San Diego delights visitors and residents alike with its irresistible charm, making it hard to ever leave.
Explore San Diego’s top sites during your trip. For starters, this city is home to the world-famous San Diego Zoo. See the zoo during your trip, and learn the stories of more than 3,700 animals. If you’re an ocean and/or history lover, San Diego’s Maritime Museum is a must see. At the museum, you can explore the decks of The Star of India, the world’s oldest active sailing ship.
Maybe you’re in the mood to chill and relax during your trip. If so, San Diego is the right place for that. Spend a day at one of San Diego’s beaches to soak up some sun—and some of the most beautiful coastal views the country has to offer. Looking for a bite to eat? The restaurant scene is exceptional. Just a stone’s throw from Mexico, it’s no surprise that you can find delicious Mexican cuisine in San Diego, ranging from high-end to casual restaurants. Before your trip ends, make sure to visit Balboa Park. With 16 museums, multiple performing art centers, trails, gardens, and more, Balboa Park is an excellent spot for families, solo travelers, and so much more.
