Thread: San Diego miscers...need vacation advice! Measly reps

So my spring break from online uni is at the end of the month (Apri 25-May2) and I've decided to spend 5-7 days in "America's Finest City".

I'm looking at an ocean-front Pacific Beach hostel for the weekdays to meet people and such, followed by move to a nicer hostel Friday/Saturday/Sunday near the Gaslamp Quarter for dat prime nightlife experience.

Is this good strategy or nah?

Just got back from a 4-5 day trip in SD


Stayed near gas lamp. It’s SUPER lively at night, but a lot of the restaurants and bars are still doing limited dining, 6 feet apart etc. Still extremely lively and fun. There were multiple bars and clubs around that area that were full on open. They apparently barely opened that weekend. The way I found them is just asking your server, usually if they’re cool/you get they’ll tell you which ones are breaking the rules and letting people in. They still might reach capacity though

Also went to PB for a bit and personally I liked it a lot better. Girls were gorgeous and seemed friendlier, beach vibe. Having a spot right there would be sick. A few bars were open like regular, you can just walk right in front the beach, although these closed earlier than the Gaslamp ones did

Also there are a couple places that legit didn’t close till like 4am lol but they were further out than PB. Overall your plan seems good, I would still check out pb during one of the weekend days if I were you

Great recs. Maybe I'll just stay at the beach bungalow hostel the whole trip and see if group wants to rideshare into Gaslamp district one night!

Edit: got you on R/C mang
