This is a hidden gem for fish lovers. We ALWAYS stop in when we're in the neighborhood. Small place, line goes out of the door sometimes. It's best to go off-rush hours.

The Safari Park was the former breeding program of the San Diego Zoo. It's a really impressive area with a trolley ride through the "savana". It is also a botanical garden with a wide array of plants from all over the world and a cactus garden. Good for all ages.
It can geet hot in the San Pasqual Valley, so make sure to bring a hat and water!

Consejos para la ciudad
Facilidad para moverse por la casa
Car is the best transportation. Public Transport available.
San Diego does have a public transport system, but it is complicated to get around.
It's best to travel by car because of the extensive freeway system.
