15 days in San Diego Itinerary

Divided into neighborhoods with distinct characters and cultural heritages, San Diego sits just north of the Mexican border and offers visitors a blend of tourist attractions, including a lively nightlife, diverse cuisine, and a thriving musical scene.

Your cultural itinerary includes sights like Mission San Juan Capistrano and Old Town Temecula. Escape the urban bustle at Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve and South Carlsbad State Beach. Venture out of the city with trips to Moonlight State Beach (in Encinitas), Anza-Borrego Desert State Park (in Borrego Springs) and Oceanside Pier (in Oceanside). There's much more to do: contemplate the long history of Mormon Battalion Historic Site, examine the collection at Maritime Museum of San Diego, kick back and relax at Coronado Beach, and make a trip to Mt. Soledad National Veterans Memorial.
