It’s always great when you can do a fun activity for free! Check out these 10 things to go do in San Diego that do not require reaching into your wallet!
Visit a beach
San Diego is fortunate to be a coastal town and has many beaches to visit! Some beaches are good for their waves, some a great for children and there are even beaches that are great for tide pools. You can surf, kayak, paddleboard, snorkel and even dive at any time!
Potato Chip Rock
Spend the day hiking up to potato chip rock! This interesting rock formation at the end of the trail looks like a potato chip, you can stand on it and pose for a cool photo- there typically is a line to take a picture!
Sunset at Sunset Cliffs
By far one of our favorite places with a view! Take a stroll down the path, climb down to be closer to the water, cliff jump or even pack a picnic. This is a guaranteed spot to see a beautiful sight!
Old Town
Get an idea of what San Diego used to be like back in the day. Visit the town’s very first courthouse and jail or if you are not into history visit all the local shops and restaurants!
Seaport Village
Spend the afternoon walking around a waterfront shopping center full of restaurants and shops! Make sure to check their calendar for their live music schedule!
Hotel del Coronado
This iconic hotel is one you don’t want to miss! Walk along the beach or grab a drink at the bar. Learn why the hotel is considered haunted!
La Jolla Cove
You are in California, therefore you have to see some sea lions! They like to hang out in this cove to swim, feed and sun bathe!
The Boardwalk
Let’s be real, you’re bound to find yourself on a boardwalk at some point during your time in San Diego. Locals bike, skateboard, rollerblade and walk up and down them every day, join them for some fun!
Beach Bonfire
All along the beaches, there are fire pits where locals gather around for nightly fires. Grab wood, some chairs and have yourself your very first beach bonfire!
Tide Pooling
