It’s Always Sunny in San Diego

Bike

Take advantage of the perfect weather and explore the city on two-wheels. Bikes and well-marked lanes are easy to find. Use Discover Bike, the city’s public share program for quick rides, or rent from the city’s numerous shops. (Stay Classy Bikes is a good option.)

Brewery Hop

Yet another amazing brewery city. Check out GOAL Brewing, Seek Beer, Bivouac Ciderworks, California Wild Ales — just to name a few.

Little Italy Farmer’s Market

A perfect Saturday morning stroll. Fresh produce, artisan crafts, plants, and food stands. Grab your eats of choice, walk a few blocks to the sea, and enjoy.

San Diego Zoo & Balboa Park

No SD list is complete without it. Truly one of the best zoos in the world! Totally worth the entry fee. Awesome for all ages.

Sunset Surf at Ocean Beach

I love OB. Rent a board and join the lineup by the pier. If you prefer to stay dry, sunsets ON the pier are always beautiful as well. (Tip: refuel at South Beach Bar & Grille and get the Mahi Mahi tacos — especially delicious with a Taco Tuesday deal.)

Hike to Cabrillo National Monument

Great piece of SD history. Small, informative museum with lighthouse views of the coast, downtown SD, and on a clear day, Mexico! Tide pools down below are beautiful as well. $10 pedestrian entrance.
