Food scene

Sunnie's is my go-to for a dirty hot chai. It's about a five-minute walk from my place (less if you walk fast like me). This is the neighborhood's favorite spot for breakfast burritos, quesadillas, and espresso drinks.

I recommend either trying an assortment of their appetizers or going all-in on the fried rice. Yum! Also, just a great spot to hang at the bar.

Their menu is about 60% burgers, 30% beer, and 10% other. If you're looking for a unique, New Zealand-inspired burger, look no further.

This is a fun, hip neighborhood, probably the best "downtown" area in all of SD. Every eatery you walk into here will impress. Plus, there's tons of breweries.

This restaurant has fresh, tasty seafood, but even more impressive is the view of San Diego Harbor. If you're lucky, you might even see the Seaworld fireworks from the other side of Point Loma. I would go right before sunset.

Great for hiking, picturesque views, or a beach day! Beware: this beach is clothing-optional.

Balboa Park features outstanding architecture, waterworks, exotic trees, lush fields, gardens, and art galleries. The famous San Diego Zoo is here, as well as several great museums. My number one recommendation is the Japanese Friendship Garden - so beautiful, so peaceful.

Sometimes I go into nature withdrawal. Mission Trails is the most accessible park for hiking and climbing.

City/town information

Coronado is a pseudo-island that is home to a military airbase and a charming little beach town. I drive across the bridge just to walk around and look at all the pretty houses, which can also be done by bike. Shopping on Orange Ave and visiting Hotel Del Coronado are musts!

城市建議

省錢方式

Always check both Uber and Lyft

One will always be cheaper; it's best to have both apps and compare pricing.
交通資訊

Driving is the easiest way to explore

Unfortunately, San Diego does not boast a thriving public transportation system. You can get around with the buses, but they do not run very late. I would recommend downloading the Transit app if you are planning on using public transport. Renting a bike or electric scooter will get you around Point Loma easily.
需要帶些甚麼

The key to dressing in San Diego is layers

The day might start foggy and chilly, but come noon, that sun is bright and hot and you'll be annoyed you wore jeans instead of a hat and sunscreen. Then, as soon the as the sun sets, the wind picks up and you'll be annoyed you left your jacket behind. Layers.
風俗和文化

Hippie Culture

Everyone you meet in OB will be super-friendly. With that said, I would not bring a wallet filled with cash to the beach and then go for a swim. Kellogg's Beach is a family-friendly beach on the bayside where your wallet will remain untouched. OB, however, requires a little more street smarts.
