San Diego Holidays

Located on the coast of South California, in the south-west of the USA, you can expect sun, sea and sand on a San Diego holiday.

From San Diego Bay and Ocean Beach to Petco Park and Downtown, there's a whole host of different places to melt into, that make it no mystery that holidays in San Diego are one of the most popular in North America.

A Typical San Diego Holiday

Summer is naturally the most popular time to visit San Diego, when it's always t-shirts and shorts weather and the ice-cream stalls flock out to the streets. Rain generally only comes in the winter months, but for the rest of the year the temperatures are always enjoyable. With landmarks including the historic and intreguing Old Town, the entertaining Gaslamp Quarter and the huge Balboa Park, there's plenty of exploring to be done and week just might not be enough!

San Diego holidays are also renowned for the plethora of sports activities available. For example, the city boasts no less than 92 golf courses for your pleasure, making it the ideal place to practice your swing in the sun. Then there's the famous Petco Park, home to the San Diego Padres baseball team, with its unusual Indian sandstone and stucco styling and home to the World Baseball Classic series finals. There's an irony to San Diego's array of sports offerings, however, since they've never won a Super Bowl, World Series, NBA Finals or any other major league sports championship, make it the largest such city not to do so.
