Nicknamed "America's Favorite City", San Diego is blessed with year-round sunshine and 70 miles of beautiful beaches, a natural deep-water harbor, and almost perfect weather. But the nation's seventh largest city offers far more than its relaxed resort appeal for conference delegates. This sparkling waterfront city pulses with a new urban sophistication. An exciting sense of anticipation and pride accompanies this beautiful city's coming of age. The city is fast making a name for itself as an important and diverse cultural center as well - offering a kaleidoscope of opera, ballet, museums, and world-class, Tony Award winning theatre. Downtown has evolved into an exciting urban center, and the harbor bustles with restaurants, shops, and sightseeing excursions.
The city thrives on recreation - from boating to biking, scuba diving, air
sports, polo, horseback riding, fishing, camping, and surfing to name a few. Be
among the first to enjoy Padres baseball in PETCO Park. The new park, which opens
in 2004, combines the best sight lines in baseball with breathtaking views of San Diego. In addition, the dazzling array of attractions - Balboa Park, Sea World, Seaport Village, the world-famous San Diego Zoo, and San Diego Wild Animal Park - unique shopping, the lure of
nearby Mexico, and spectator and participant sports all combine to make San Diego one of the best places to visit for singles and families alike.
Whether your agenda calls for deep-sea fishing and boating along the coastline, or golfing in North County, shopping in Mission Valley, exploring East County's mountains and deserts, or doing it up downtown, you won't want to miss this opportunity to visit San Diego.
