    Had a wonderful morning at this small aquarium. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I appreciate the fact that many of the animals here were rescues.

    Our recent “Gold” tour of the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Training Site / Chula Vista Elite Athlete Training Center was instructive, enlightening, and inspirational -- highly recommended for all ages! Our guide, Stephanie, was perfect: warm, personable, and informative. Stephanie (a former ice skater) smoothly guided us across a broad swath of the 155-acre campus supporting track and field, BMX supercross, field hockey, soccer, rugby, volleyball, tennis, archery and more. Availability of a golf cart was especially useful to one of our group recovering from a recent knee replacement. Throughout the day we observed many athletes at practice (Stephanie frequently noted Olympians by name, many having recently competed and won in the Tokyo games). Some athletes had just returned from the Para Athletics World Championships in Paris while others were preparing for future competitive events. We marveled over their dedication and skill. We admired the large strength training facility and thoroughly enjoyed our lunch in the dining hall. We even appreciated the presence of an osprey, likely making its home at the nearby lake, also part of the training facility. We encourage all to visit the Center, as it will certainly provide important insight and appreciation for Olympians preparing for Paris 2024!

    Only 40 minutes south of the San Ysidro/San Diego border, this lovely small town has it all! A variety of places to stay, with the historic Rosarito Beach Hotel standing out, you can eat fancy or cheap and all of it good and fairly priced! Want California Fusion Cuisine? Try Susanna's! Fabulous tacos...most anywhere "on the street." Sensational Mole? We love Cazuela de Mole. You can't stay long enough to eat all the good food! Great wide sand beach, fun drinking spots! What else could you ask for? GO!

    What a great walk, the sea breezes, sunny weather, happy people, the Marina..I could go on and on.
    The ease of parking down here and slower pace is a welcome relief from the hustle and bustle of LA...

    We visited in February when the weather was overcast. Few visitors disturbed our peace and quite. We had a picnic on the grass and watched the waves and gulls. It was a great way to spend a Saturday.

    This offers a secret walking trail on the water. The salt beds offer a myriad of colors depending on the time of day. Watch out for cyclists.

    located south of San Diego CA in Chula Vista is this nice littl;e music venue. numerous food/alcohol businesses are located here. seating is good, not too tight. a grassy area is located to the rear of the amphitheater. no outside foodr or drink is allowed except for ONE 20oz or smaller unopened plastic bottle even though I did see people come in with EMPTY reusea ble bottles. parking is so-so.

    Extremely welcoming (owner, staff & regulars). Their Michelada is awesome… the mix used is homemade. Beers are quite drinkable with the lager being perhaps the most drinkable one we’ve ever had.

    This is the perfect place to walk around and be tranquil or for a nice picnic with yourself or others. I often like going to this place by myself and with friends. The surroundings are quiet, there is vegetation and running water coming down from the mountains. The scenery is not what you would expect, and you will be surprised and happy you drove out to visit.

    Great addition to Rice Canyon. Good for picnics and exercise, as well as softball and other games. Great starting place for walks and bike rides up and down Rice Canyon.

    3rd Avenue has been revitalized and has some great dinning options. It is also a very nice stroll. Parking is a little hard to find because restaurants are using what was parking as outdoor dining. There are side streets so you might just have a small walk.
