San Diego International Airport
The San Diego International Airport is easy to reach from most major airports and is conveniently located to downtown San Diego and the beautiful Bayfront area.
Visit the Midway Museum and the historic USS Midway, America's longest-serving aircraft carrier. Situated just across the bay from downtown San Diego, Coronado is consistently voted best beach in the U.S. with gentle surf, sparkling wide-sand beaches, and a charming main street dining and shopping. Located south of downtown and just north of the Mexico border lies the area known as San Diego's South Bay, the gateway to Baja California. This area is home to a number of exciting attractions as well as some of the best Mexican food this side of the border. And be sure to make time to visit the world-famous San Diego Zoo!
