With its great weather, miles of sandy beaches, and major attractions, San Diego is known worldwide as one of the best tourist destinations

 

San Diego is one of the most pleasant big cities in the nation. Certainly the year-round warm weather and 70 miles of beaches contribute to the pleasantness -- and possibly even to the surprisingly low crime rate here in the nation's 8th largest city. The sweeping blue Coronado Bridge is a landmark of San Diego's skyline. It curves attractively along the edge of San Diego Bay. Once known mainly as home to a large Navy base, San Diego has grown into a major center for culture and recreation in California's southwest.
