About San Diego
Dubbed by many as "the only area in the US with perfect weather," San Diego is the oldest port on the West Coast and the sixth-largest city in the nation. Long known as a naval base, the military - along with tourism - still dominates the economy. In addition to rolling mountains, beautiful deserts, and seventy miles of coastline featuring some of the world's best beaches, San Diego offers a wealth of attractions such as Sea World, Wild Animal Park and the San Diego Zoo. Art lovers can choose from many fine museums or catch a Shakespearean play at the Old Globe Theater. With more championship golf courses - over 85 - than any other US city, linksters will have no problem teeing off. The city also hosts the NFL's Chargers and Major League Baseball's Padres.

Take time to smell the roses and all of the other flowers that San Diego offers. The dry climate is the perfect condition for growing pampas grass, wild daisies and jasmine. In December, red and white poinsettias bloom naturally for the Christmas season. In the spring enjoy the scents drifting from the numerous citrus trees.
