5 days in San Diego Itinerary

Divided into neighborhoods with distinct characters and cultural heritages, San Diego sits just north of the Mexican border and offers visitors a blend of tourist attractions, including a lively nightlife, diverse cuisine, and a thriving musical scene.

Change things up with these side-trips from San Diego: Disney California Adventure Park (in Anaheim) and Self Realization Fellowship Hermitage & Meditation Gardens (in Encinitas). There's much more to do: get to know the resident critters at San Diego Zoo, kick back and relax at La Jolla Cove, pause for some photo ops at Cabrillo National Monument, and walk around Sunset Cliffs Natural Park.
