Things to Do In San Diego

[table id=14 /]

San Diego is beautiful whether you are walking through different neighborhoods or whether you are driving through. However, in order to have a real idea of the landscape that this city offers, take a look from overhead. Whether you are looking for things to do in San Diego on vacation or whether you are thinking of moving here, this is a great video that shows how beautiful San Diego is.

I just found this video called “Fly by San Diego” created by Mugsy Mahonney. He has captured the beauty that San Diego is by shooting a video from up above. Taking a look at the coastline, the sandy beaches, including Coronado Beach where you can see the famous Hotel Del. Here you will see the San Diego Harbor and views of the Coronado Bridge. Also captured are surfers as the ride the waves in Ocean Beach, views of Point Loma, La Jolla Cove, and a detailed look at Downtown San Diego where you can almost touch the top of the buildings.

Balboa park is large and when you walk through the park you can enjoy the beauty but seeing it from above really gives you an idea of how large it really is. He also takes you through Sea World, Mission Bay, Old town, Qualcomm Stadium and the infamous USS Midway.

For those Golfers out there, take a look at how pristine Torrey Pines Grounds are. I do not golf but looking at this makes me want to hit a golf ball. Also captured are the Seals and Sea Lions off of Sunset Cliffs. Belmont Park has never looked so good. Here you can see how colorful and close to the water the roller coaster is as well as the fun shops and restaurants are located.

This is a wonderful short clip of what to see and things to do you in San Diego, whether you are coming here on vacation or whether you live here.
