San Diego is renowned for its stunning beaches, and summer is the ideal time to soak up some sun and indulge in the salty sea breeze. Make sure to pack your beach bag with essentials like sunscreen, a wide-brimmed hat, and a good book. Some of my personal favorite spots are La Jolla Cove, Pacific Beach, and Coronado Beach. Don't forget to try your hand at surfing or paddleboarding if you're feeling adventurous!

 

2. Explore Balboa Park:

Escape the hustle and bustle of the city by immersing yourself in the natural beauty of Balboa Park.
