Chula Vista and beyond: Thrills on the edge of California
As everyone drives south of Chula Vista to reach one of the busiest international borders in the world, you should take your car north to visit the other destinations in Southern California. We’ve picked three of the best nearby destinations.
San Diego
San Diego feels purpose-built for a good time. Even its spacious city park, Balboa Park, is packed with attractions – including the famous San Diego Zoo. The downtown area features a thrilling museum for children and eye-catching Art Deco architecture, while the outskirts offer cliffside walks and buzzing beaches.
Journey time: Around 15 minutes
Distance: Approximately 10 miles
La Jolla
The town of La Jolla, to the north of San Diego, is a beautiful beachfront destination. Many of the beaches here, such as La Jolla Cove, are ideal for children, as the waters are calmer. Head away from the natural bays to find rougher seas, which are beloved by the area’s large surfing community. Best of all, the sun is almost always shining here.
Journey time: Around 30 minutes
Distance: Approximately 20 miles
Mission San Juan Capistrano
Before California became the laid-back tourist destination it is today, Spanish Christians set up religious communities known as missions along the southern coastline in the 18th century. One of the best-preserved missions can be found in San Juan Capistrano. The historic downtown here features architecture from the era, making it one of the oldest settlements in the region.
Journey time: Around 1 hour 10 minutes
Distance: Approximately 75 miles
