Things to Do in San Diego

A history lesson awaits private aviation travelers visiting San Diego.

Portuguese-born explorer Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo was the first European to visit the sunny Pacific shores of the area in 1542. He originally claimed the bay for the Spanish Empire, naming it San Miguel. Sixty years later, Spain’s Sebastian Vizcaino surveyed what are now Mission Bay and Point Loma and named them in honor of Saint Didacus, more commonly known as San Diego. 

The Columbia District, located downtown, is home to a variety of historic ship exhibits belonging to the San Diego Maritime Museum, headlined by the Star of India.

The San Diego Aircraft Carrier Museum also features the legendary USS Midway aircraft carrier, which was the largest ship in the world until 1955.

Because of the city’s year-round warm temperatures and sunshine, tourism is a very big part of the city’s culture. Besides the many museums, the city is home to a number of known family attractions, including:

  • SeaWorld
  • San Diego Zoo
  • Belmont Amusement Park
  • Legoland California
  • San Diego Wild Animal Park

Culturally, there are also many things to see and do in San Diego. The San Diego Symphony performs at Symphony Towers, and the San Diego Opera is continually recognized as one of the top-10 opera companies in the United States.

Old Globe Theatre at Balboa Park produces about 15 plays and musicals annually, and with the nearby La Jolla Playhouse, they have produced acts that have gone on to win multiple Tony Awards on Broadway. In professional sports, San Diego is represented in the NFL by the Chargers, and in Major League Baseball by the Padres.

It also hosts two annual NCAA football bowl games-Holiday Bowl and the Poinsettia Bowl-and has been the site of many other championships and other major games in sports such as soccer and rugby.

While these events are fun for the entire family, they can also make great getaways to celebrate birthdays, bachelor/bachelorette trips, and anniversaries. Stratos Jet Charter has private jet charters to San Diego to fit your party no matter how small or large.
