What should I do in San Diego?

by Russell Dunkin on November 25, 2009

This February, I’ll be attending a conference in San Diego.  It starts on a Wednesday, and runs through Saturday.  I plan on flying out on Sunday with my wife and turning it into a mini vacation.  I’ve been to LA, but never San Diego, so I thought I would research what to do.  Typically, I would Google it, or buy a travel book, or iPhone app to guide what I’ll do.  Instead, I decided to crowdsource it, and ask my friends online.  Here is a representation of their responses:

I asked the question on both Twitter and Facebook.  I was a little surprised that I received much more feedback from Facebook than Twitter (10 to 1 so far).  Thanks to the simple question, I know feel comfortable knowing exactly what to do, and what to avoid!

Do you have anything different to add?  I’m not going for 3 months, so any tips would be greatly appreciated!  Please add anything you think I should do or avoid here.

  • Great! Thanks. I'm looking forward to it.
  • My favorite part of visiting San Diego was the food. We went to the taco shops at the beach. They are everywhere. Be sure to do so.

    I think we ate Mexican food for every meal. I don't regret it.
