What to do in San Diego

San Diego is eighth largest city in the United States and the second largest city in California. With over 112 kilometres of beach and an average temperature of 21 degrees Celsius, San Diego embodies all the typically coastal characteristics you'd expect from a large city on the American west coast.

Idyllic seascapes and charming weather can't help but create a summery, romantic atmosphere. This is good, because San Diego is also rated one of the best cities in the country for dating according to Bite San Diego, making it the place to be for singles. The metropolis isn't only good for bachelors and bachelorettes, however. Attractions include a large range of family friendly sights, enjoyable for children and adults alike.

As if pristine beaches and perfect weather wasn't already enough, San Diego offers a curious tourist plenty in the form of entertainment.

The world famous San Diego Zoo is one of those attractions you simply cannot afford to miss when you're visiting this city. From the usual zoo classics such as tigers and zebras to more unusual residents such as pygmy marmosets, maned wolves and naked mole rats, it's easy to see why this zoo has the reputation that it has. A trip here will have you face to face (through a panel of glass) with an enormous number of animals you've never seen or heard of before.

Another worthwhile stop is the iconic Hotel del Coronado. Regardless of whether your accommodation is sorted or not, this luxury resort is worth a visit if only to see its unique architecture. Stop by and have a look at the hotel's immediately recognisable conical red roof, then enjoy a delicious gourmet meal at one of the resort's many restaurants.

Finally, there's the USS Midway Museum, perfect for those who enjoy a bit of maritime and aeronautical machinery. The museum has 60 exhibits where guests can explore restored aircrafts and learn all about life at sea and in the air. Open from 10.a.m. to 5.p.m., tickets cost US$20 for adults.
