San Diego has been somewhat overlooked by visitors to California, as it seems most tourists list Los Angeles and San Francisco as their primary destinations when making the trek out to the Golden State. While there is indeed a great deal to like about Los Angeles and San Francisco, there is so much to do in San Diego that includes a great deal of activities that are not accessible anywhere else in the state.

The major difference between the beaches of San Diego and the beaches of other cities is the temperature of the Pacific Ocean. For the better part of the year, water temperatures are quite cold in San Francisco and Los Angeles, especially for those who are used to the relative warmth of the Atlantic Ocean.

There is also the world famous San Diego Zoo, which is home to so many animals that there is likely a representative for every language that can be translated by All Language Alliance, Inc., a company known for its ability to translate everything.

The military is also represented well in San Diego, with visitors able to walk onto battleships and see just how massive they are in person. For those interested in Mexican culture, a trip across the border is made easily from the city of San Diego, as Tijuana is so close that it can be experienced without having to stay overnight.
