Excellent seafood place. Fine dining. Nice setting on a pond. They have another location downtown, but I'd try something else if you go that way.

My favorite seafood place and a great excuse to visit Coronado Island. Looks out back at downtown SD over the Bay. When I show family around I usually start by visiting the Hotel Del Coronado, walk around maybe have a drink and finish with a reservation for dinner here.

Shopping

Vons is closer but I like to shop for seafood, fresh veggies, fruits and use the deli and desert shop often. Does not sell alcohol. Go to Vons or Bev Mo if needed.

Drinks & Nightlife

I recommend you use Uber or Lyft if you plan to party and parking is difficult downtown. Dozens and dozens of places to eat, drink, find dancing and bands.

Entertainment & Activities

OB is the closest beach to the house and also a fun, unique place to walk around. Lots of dining and bars, shop for inexpensive gifts, walk the longest pier in San Diego or walk on the beach. Also home of 'Dog Beach' worth checking out on the north side of the beach.

World famous and a must see if in San Diego. If you have the time to travel to the Wild Animal Park in Escondido as well as go to the zoo then buy the annual membership and you will save money if there are two or more people going. You will get free passes when you do. Go to guest services near the entrance to get them.

Iconic Racetrack in beautiful Del Mar. Maybe 40 minutes from the house. Take the 8 west to the 805 North. Del Mar is about where the 805 merges with the 5. Traffic can be tough.

Sightseeing

Historic place on Coronado Island. Great place to spend a day. I prefer Peohe's for dining on the other side of the island.

Visit at your own risk. If you go during the day its very touristy and fairly safe, but I wouldn't party at night any more. Gang's are running the show these days.

We walk to the lake almost every day. Note that the trail does not go in a complete circle. If you go the end of the 4 mile trail you will have to turn around to get back. They rent boats, canoes, bikes etc in the park. If you fish you need a license.

This is an awesome place to snorkel and swim around with sea lions and fish. Absolutely stunning views and they have free concerts in the park during the summer on Sunday afternoons. One of my favorite places in the world! It's also a good excuse to spend the day in iconic downtown La Jolla just above the Cove. Free Parking is tough to find so I usually park in a garage for $5-$10.
