From the beach to hiking and biking trails. This is a relaxing place to go. Many options for individuals and families. The chapel is worth the drive up if you like beautiful old churches.

Just head downtown (there's plenty of free or inexpensive parking) and start anywhere along the River Walk. It's a great place for walking, biking, or relaxing. Great places to take family photos.
Please use extreme caution around the river. It is highly recommended to wear a life vest even if you are in very shallow water. The undercurrent of the river is much stronger than you expect. There are multiple deaths each year from kids and adults wading in the river without a life vest.

Museums
The first 200 yards is worth the visit alone! Lower levels rooms are amazing. History buffs will love it. Even if you're not a history buff, the displays are amazing. http://www.nationalinfantrymuseum.org

Food scene
I love going to Banks Food Hall. There are several restaurants so if you are with a group everyone can get their choice. Right now there is a great bar, coffee shop with pastries, Mexican, fancy hot dogs, Poke Bowls (fresh fish and vegetables that sounded gross to me but is now an addiction), and Jeremiahs (soft serve ice cream and Italian ice - you can have them separate or together).
Sit inside or on the patio for some great people watching.

There are nights where there is great music. But anytime go for the food. The pork chop is one of the best I’ve ever had. It’s not cheap, but worth every penny.
