May 2018–San Diego is famous for its beaches. In fact, it has 70 miles of coastline that you can enjoy year-round. While the winter weather may not be great for swimming, you can still enjoy the long strips of soft sandy beaches, gorgeous coastline sunsets, and sunny days when people in other states are bundled up inside their homes. On any given day, especially during the spring and summer months, you can find people outside playing volleyball, riding bikes along the boardwalk, strolling the beachside shops or simply soaking up the sun. Active and healthy living is a mainstay in the area. It’s no surprise that San Diego recently made the list of Top 10 Fittest Cities in America.
May 2018 — San Diego is one of the jewels of the West Coast. Not only does it have the largest Entertainment district in the Western US, it also has miles of beaches that are surprisingly empty for most of the week throughout the year. Locals normally don’t arrive until 4 pm unless they are at lunch. The weather is perfect near the water year round, with 300 days of sunshine. Thursday nights are special locally for those that are young. They go out and enjoy the bars, discos, and hotels with all the locals. Because there are so many tourists, going out on Friday or Saturday can cause local people to get frustrated. Another local tradition is to go to December Nights, a carnival that is held in the giant park that contains the world famous San Diego zoo. The carnival kicks off December and is on before any of the Christmas tourists show up, making it another ideal event for the locals. Drinking coffee wasn’t a strong tradition until about 12 years ago. Starbucks and others put a lot of coffee shops downtown. Those that moved to or visited San Diego kept the shops open with their business. Eventually, everyone started drinking more coffee. Many locals refuse to drink at chains there are not roasted or brewed by locally owned companies, however.
