WANDERLUST SATISFIED
Brilliant Lady LA MerMaiden
From incredible beaches to consistently beautiful weather, there’s a reason the locals in San Diego walk around with a smile. As one of the most biodiverse areas in the U.S., the San Diego Zoo is considered one of the best zoos in the world, while the parks and gardens are a must-visit including Balboa Park’s Japanese Friendship Garden. Whether you’re an outdoor enthusiast, or prefer shopping, sightseeing, and world-class cuisine, San Diego has it all — and often steps away from the coast.
