We moved out of SD 5 years ago and I still miss it till this day but we actually lived the SD lifestyle and took advantage of everything around us. I lived the So Cal dream on a daily basis and never took it for granted. Traveled all week long, restaurants galore, hiked every other day, beach everyday, deep sea fishing every week...ahhh I miss it so much. Take advantage of your surroundings because you are paying for it anyways. You are doing it wrong if you ain't taking advantage of whats around you. Might as well move out to save your cash.

As a San Diegan, I really enjoyed this video. Obviously, you can't possibly list every single great spot in a city but this is a pretty great list and it is perfect for someone who is coming here for a week. Depending on the season, the Del Mar races or the county fair are pretty solid too. And the San Diego Zoo Safari Park (WAP to locals) is phenomenal for animal lovers.

As a San Diego native you did a good combo of touristy stuff/hidden spots. I would definitely recommend going to Encinitas beaches, Del Mar beaches, meditation gardens in encinitas, San Diego botanical gardens, it I think you were going for a more central downtown area as those are slightly more north but definitely worth the drive if you are staying downtown. Great job!

Awesome video about the city I live in! The following are my recommendations on how to do the most in a single day when you are on foot or only have a single day with a car. I highly recommend the orange trolley tour to hit the majority of those hot spots while getting a pretty cool history lesson. Its the best way to see/walk to everything on this list with the exception of Liberty Station, Cabrillo National Park, the beaches, and North Park. The tour brings you to old town, balboa park, the gas lamp district, sea port villiage, and coronado. On a budget? You can do the gas lamp, maritime museum, midway museum, seaport villiage, and coronado (via the ferry located between midway and maritime) all in one day on foot. Take orange street on foot to take in all the shops and restaurants on your way to Hotel Del Coronado (about a mile long walk one way). Definitely party in the gas lamp at one of the two roof top bars mentioned in his video. Top of the Mariott is a younger crowd, top of the Hyatt is usually a more mature crowd. Everything down fourth and fifth street is pretty wild. The shout house has dueling pianos and is a good spot for 21+, middle aged, or older crowds. Balboa Park is an insane day trip if you want to take in the museums and zoo. Wear a comfortable closed toed shoe as you can easily trek 5+ miles depending on how much of the zoo and museums you take in. I highly recommend the Prado @ the house of hospitality in balboa park for a drink or a meal. Try to sit on the patio. Careful with ride share apps and enterance to Cabrillo National park, there is a small fee to drive into the park and nothing is a short walk. I recommend knocking Torrey Pines, La Jolla, Pacific Beach (emerald pier), sunset cliffs, Cabrillo and finish with dinner @ liberty station (in that exact order) on a day you have a rental car. If you are into photography, then you need to do more research as each of these sites are hot spots for epic shots, so you'll have to plan for best light. Liberty Station should be reserved as a food destination. If you are into craft beer there are more than three highly recommended craft brewery/restaurants in liberty station on top of additional themed restaurants like the covette diner/slatter's 5050/marketplace. North Park is a very trendy area. If you want to have a safe, awesome Saturday night; I recommend dinner and ice cream Saturday night that rolls into partying @ West Coast Tavern/Pink Bar/True North (all in North Park) with a Sunday brunch at the Mission in North Park. The bars close at 2a.m. so book something local to pull off Sunday Brunch in North Park... if you're downtown, vice in North Park, try to get to the hillcrest area for brunch ('hash house a go-go' is a favorite) Our four drinking/night life areas in San Diego are Pacific Beach (garnet street), Gas Lamp District (4th/5th Streets), North Park (University Ave) and we have a gay district called Hillcrest. Hope you enjoy San Diego as much as I do. Dont forget our two amusement parks (Sea World and Lego Land).

One area of San Diego that we often visit is Ocean Beach. This is a vintage beachtown that hasn't been gentrified - yet. Much of the main street is as was in the 1970's when I visited San Diego before I moved here. Interesting shops and good restaurants, the pier with a restaurant to relax and get a bite to eat and enjoy the wonderful view, a walk along the beach including Dog Beach and the tidepools to explore. It has it all with an eclectic vibe.

You did a great job! Ive lived in San Diego my whole life and you nailed it! I liked how you didn't just talk about the same ol boring stuff! Another gem you should add is ocean beach, del mar, and wind and sea beach! All great spots! And don't forget you can go from beach, to forest, to desert in less than a two hours!

You must be an owner of a gasoline station, right? And a few parking lots ? Did he not mention the recent increase in the price of gasoline or the LIMITED PARKING SPOTS ? Look out for the traffic! another one he missed; Yes, Mission Bay! They used to have paddle boats there too? YOU probably live in Salona Beach, right ? They have parking there and great food near the rail road tracks;Guess he couldn't find PARKING for Laguna nor anything near the Cuyamaca Mountains either ? Missed Little Italy AND Capistrano too? I'd like to know WHY my friend in Genova , ITALY would EVER want to visit San Diego; ? OH GOOD; WHEN can you show us the PARKING LOTS we have to struggle through to EACH wonderful experience ? (San Diego Keep my Spirit written on a good day at Malibu!) lots of parking there btw. ("Please Come back to Barcelona" too!)

Great to see so many San Diegans who also enjoy your videos. I agree with the group, you absolutely nailed this list. Even five years later it's 95% accurate and only missed being perfect because Urban Solace sadly closed. BUT Holsem makes great coffee right around the corner and Nomad donuts is the only spot in SD making legit Montreal-style bagels. I'd also add Convoy Street in Kearny Mesa as a stretch of places for a fantastic eating adventure. You can walk into nearly any Convoy diner or restaurant from Aero to Clairemont Mesa and not be disappointed.
