 Beach San Diego -
It's all about the beaches in San Diego, isn't it? At
least on most vacations, beaches still rank tops for
tourists coming to San Diego.
There are
plenty of beaches for San Diego to celebrate--and best
of all-- there are plenty of hotels, as well.
There are approx. 70 miles of beaches in San Diego in both the city
and county. Vacationers consistently choose San Diego as
their favorite vacation spots because of the weather,
manmade islands and hotels at the beach.
If you are seeking a
sunny, warm clime, you best head for San Diego. It
offers the finest temperatures of any U.S. city. And in
a recent poll during the Labor Day (September) holiday
weekend, the nation and Californians chose San Diego as
one of the very top places to visit.
San Diego hotels are
numbered over 100. With city by the bay offering the nation's
finest weather, world-class attractions and a variety of
unique accommodations, this is truly the
vacationer's paradise. From Coronado Island, Imperial
Beach, Mission Bay, Mission Beach, Pacific Beach, Ocean
Beach and La Jolla to San Diego Zoo or Wild Animal Park,
you can stay a week in San Diego and never run out of
things to see and do. For starters, there's SeaWorld, Legoland, Balboa Park, Old Town, Point Loma, Belmont
Park, Tijuana, Gaslamp Quarter, Horton Plaza, Seaport
Village, thoroughbred racing at Del Mar and gaming
casinos.
Once you visit this
wonderland of sunshine and fun, you'll want to return
again and again. San Diego offers something for every
age group and interest. Families, business travelers and
meeting planners can choose over 200 hotels, thousands
of rooms and suites and room rates to compete with any
location along the California Coast. Resorts such as San
Diego Hilton Resort or Catamaran Resort Hotel feature
beaches on site, boat docks with yachts, paved jogging
and bike trails along the waterfront. These properties
are especially nice for family vacations.
Hotels and resort options
are one of the many things to love about San Diego. The
beaches are friendly and fun. Unlike Orange and Los
Angeles Counties to the north, San Diego permits
consumption of alcoholic beverages on its beaches for
those of legal drinking age. The beaches are open nearly
all the time and make San Diego Beaches the #1 choice
for guests.
Getting around:
An
affordable public transportation system allows guests to
visit the entire San Diego County coast without having
to drive a car. There's San Diego International Airport,
Amtrak and Coaster trains, Metropolitan Transit System
trolley rides, buses, ferry boats and pleasure cruise
ships that transport guests in and out of the city.
While San Diego is one of the easiest regions to drive
around, the public transportation system features
relaxing rides and beautiful scenery that can only be
enjoyed as a passenger.
