If it's sand, sun, and sea you're after, a San Diego vacation package will hit the spot. With miles of golden beaches and endless blue skies, San Diego is the perfect place to plunk down on the sand with a good book, or hit the waves if you're the surfing type.
Named for the Spanish saint Didacus, the city boasts a number of historical missions and was incorporated as a city in 1850. Having had a strong U.S. Naval presence since 1907, the city today is home to the San Diego Aircraft Carrier Museum - which features the USS Midway aircraft carrier - as well as 16 active military facilities. And no San Diego vacation would be complete without a trip across the Coronado bridge - an architectural masterpiece itself - which houses the iconic Hotel del Coronado.
Spice up your San Diego vacation package with an evening discovering the bars and restaurants of the trendy Gaslamp Quarter, or spend a day exploring the museums in beautiful Balboa Park. And bring the kids along on your next San Diego vacation: they'll love Seaworld, the famous San Diego Zoo, and nearby Legoland.
