Country

Region

Southern California

Getting there from SF

1.5-hour flight; easy rideshare or trolley into the city

Ideal weekend move

Beach in the morning, tacos in the afternoon, sunset in La Jolla, and one slightly questionable night in the Gaslamp you’ll half-regret, half-miss.

Best time to go

Basically year-round; May–October if you want solid beach weather.

My take

San Diego is that friend who’s always in a good mood and somehow convinces you that owning flip-flops as real shoes is a personality, not a crime.
