Attractions 

San Diego Zoo - World famous zoo housing over 12,000 animals of more than 650 species and subspecies on 100 acres of Balboa Park. An absolute Must See!    

San Diego Safari Park - The sister park to San Diego Zoo, located in Escondido, offers a unique take on the zoo experience. Here you can walk among Kangaroos, off-road alongside Rhinos & Giraffes, & even catch a glimpse of the illusive Platypus.    

Sea World - Just a stones throw away from downtown, Sea World offers roller coasters, animal encounters, and unique educational exhibits that bring awareness to their marine life conservation efforts.     

LEGOLAND - Most famously known as where we met… Located in Carlsbad, LEGOLAND is the perfect theme park experience for children ages 2-12. With a recently opened LEGO Movie World, this theme park will NOT disappoint!    

La Jolla Cove - If you want to get up close to the famous La Jolla seals & sea lions, this is the place to go. Make sure to pop into the Cave Store where you can take a tunnel down into one of the many sea caves that dot the cliff walls.    

La Jolla Shores - If you are looking to have a beach day or some recreational fun, La Jolla Shores can't be beat. Soak up some rays, rent a paddle board, explore the sea caves in a kayak, or maybe snorkel with a leopard shark or two (Don't worry, they're friendly!).    

Mission Beach/Belmont Park - Offering the west coast's version of a classic boardwalk experience, Mission Beach is the perfect place to spend an afternoon. Take a ride on a roller coaster, grab a bite to eat, or check out some of the many shops along the boardwalk.     

Scenic/Outdoors  

San Diego has no shortage of open space. Whether you're looking for a scenic overlook, a park, or a place to hike, there is something for everyone.    

Balboa Park (Park/Walk) - While Balboa Park is known as the home of the San Diego Zoo, there is much more to explore. From botanical gardens, museums, art displays, & street vendors, you can easily spend a day here.     

Torrey Pines (Hike) - Located right in our backyard, Torrey Pines is home to the world famous Torrey Pines golf course. With over 8 miles of cliffside trails, you will be greeted with spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean from hundreds of feet up. We consider this a must do for visitors.    

Sunset Cliffs (Walk) - With over 2 miles of trails along the coast, this scenic walk passes sea caves, tide pools, and much more. A local favorite spot to take in a west coast sunset (hence the name).    

Cabrillo National Monument (Point Loma) - Located just south of Sunset Cliffs, Cabrillo National Monument offers sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, Mission Bay, and downtown San Diego.     

Potato Chip Rock (Strenuous Hike) - While this hike is rated strenuous and takes anywhere from 4-5 hours to complete, the sweeping views and envy inducing photo ops make this completely worth it.    

 Iron Mountain (Moderate Hike) - Located right next to Potato Chip Rock, Iron Mountain offers similar views with a much shorter climb time (approx. 2 hours).   

Restaurants & Dining   

The Bier Garden (Encinitas, CA) - The location of our first date and many dates since. Located in the heart of downtown Encinitas, the Bier Garden has great cocktails, local craft beers, & some really yummy dishes.  

Pillbox Tavern (Solana Beach, CA) - Steps away from Adam’s first home in California, Pillbox holds a special place in our heart. You can’t go wrong with a Margarita (classic or frozen mango), tacos, or literally anything else on their menu.   

Best Pizza & Brew (Cardiff, CA) - If you’re craving an east coast slice, but west coast beach views, you can find both here. Highly recommend the buffalo chicken pizza.    

Board & Brew (Del Mar, CA) - The original location of a SoCal staple, and conveniently located blocks away from the beach, Board & Brew sandwiches are perfect for a picnic by the beach. Adam recommends the Tom’s Choice with extra sauce.  

Robertos Taco Shop (Del Mar, CA) - Roberto’s is the perfect place to post up after hiking Torrey Pines. Offering scenic views and delicious California Burritos, you’ll start feeling like a San Diego local in no time.  

Little Italy (Downtown San Diego) - Home to many authentic Italian restaurants & bakeries, you’ll find limitless amounts of pasta, pizza, & cannolis/gelato. Highly recommend Barbusa (no affiliation to Jordan Barbosa).   

Gaslamp Quarter (Downtown San Diego) - If you’re looking for a night on the town, look no further. Packed with restaurants, bars, clubs, (and a speakeasy a two), Gaslamp has all the ingredients for a fun night out.      

Drinks & Tastings   

Craft Beer - Fun Fact: San Diego is the craft beer capital of the US. You’re probably familiar with the big names like Stone, Ballast Point, & Green Flash, all of which have local tasting rooms & brewery tours to enjoy. If you’re looking to try something new, we recommend AleSmith, Latitude 33, Mother Earth, Belching Beaver.    

Wineries - Napa Valley gets most of the attention, but Southern California has a bustling wine scene as well! Most vineyards are located in Escondido (or Temecula if you’re willing to drive a little further) and offer tastings on their sunny patios with sweeping mountain views.   

Hard Kombucha - A new sensation in the adult beverage rotation, hard kombucha is certainly worth checking out. Notable breweries & tasting rooms in the area include Boochcraft & JuneShine.    

Cutwater Craft Cocktails - This pre-made cocktail & spirit maker is headquartered here in San Diego. Stop by their restaurant & tasting room to sample our favorite drink: the Vodka Mule.
