3. "Never been to Carlsbad but SD has tons of stuff and is beautiful" In response to Reply # 0 Mon Sep-11-17 12:34 PM by dustin
Sea World, beaches (now is probably the best beach weather time), Lego land, etc
edit: I googled where Carlsbad is, if you stay there and get a rental (or use the train as you said) you got tons of options! Last time I was in SD we stayed in La Jolla but we went to a wedding in Oceanside. Carlsbad is in between. I think we even took a Lyft from Oceanside to La Jolla and it wasn't too expensive.
Carlsbad is pretty nice, the beach Legoland the aquarium, the flowers, the village area, the Renovatedto downtown Oceanside are all very close together.
I do think that La Jolla especially Torrey Pines to the golf course to the glider port to the Scripps oceanography Institute to the code to downtown to Wind and Sea Beach here's more spectacular.
