Soaking Up The Sun In San Diego

By Lillian McDonald


There are several different areas that offer us great beaches and a toasty climate. Unfortunately, quite a few of these places, like Maui, the Bahamas or even Puerto Rico are just too expensive of a location to be sensible during these times of economic uncertainty.

However, even if you are too cash strapped to go to Fuji or Cancun, there are plenty of great spots on the pacific coast that will not only whet your appetite for sand, sun and surf, but will not likely cost you an arm and a leg. The Pacific Coast is a place that enjoys a lot of the climate and vistas that many of us search for all while keeping the conveniences of a mainland state. Due to this advantageous location, there are several cities here that do not disappoint when looking for a fantastic beach experience of sights and activities.

Try San Diego for example. A great American city with all the delightful coastline that allows visitors to participate in water sports and experience beach culture within the country, and more importantly, all while fitting into the average American's budget. You get the tropical paradise setting of Hawaii, or the party on the shore experience of Ibiza, without flying halfway across the world. San Diego is home not only to wonderful beaches but also to many other entertainment parks and establishments. You can check out Balboa Park or the thrills of Belmont amusement park. See the wildlife in San Diego Zoo and San Diego Wild Animal Park or spend a day at the famous Sea World in San Diego. There are a lot of things to do here in a widely varied mix of activities you wouldn't find in a typical beach locale. Imagine, being able to get the beach experience that a lot of people crave for while still maintaining access to other forms of entertainment in one place.

When vacationing here and you find yourself in the vicinity of San Diego, please remember that there are numerous picks and alternatives for where to stay, including hotels, chain motels, bed and breakfasts as well as beautiful Bluegreen resort options. Because of the considerable and steady tourist population in the area, there is no shortage in great hotels and other accommodations that can fit into any sort of budget or preferences.

When all is said and done, no one needs to sacrifice the time off work that we all need to spend time with the family at a destination that is conducive to good times. Of course, this is true as long as we prepare for our vacations in advance. There are a lot of things that we can do when strapped for cash and the Pacific coast is home to many world class activities and views.
