Frugal Ways to Have Fun in San Diego

The vibrant city of San Diego is found mere miles from the US border with Mexica. Being a technology powerhouse, San Diego is the fifth richest town in the US. While you might initially think that a town this rich wouldn’t possibly have something for those without a bundle to spend, San Diego definitely comes through with great style in this area. Here are many ideas to get you started.

Visit the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park

Anza-Borrego Desert State ParkThe half-million acre park offers a stark desert landscape that you are likely to have ever seen if you don’t live the Southwest. On a trek early in the morning or late in the evening, you’ll simply spot desert wildlife – bighorn sheep, golden eagles and roadrunners among others. It’s a desirable place to relish solitude and get closer to nature without spending a dime.

Visit Balboa Park

With spectacular landscaped gardens, lovely buildings and entertaining activities, Balboa Park is San Diego’s most well-liked attraction and one of the most effective parks in the world. Among the free possibilities available are a free carousel, miniature railroad, photography museum and a Spanish art center. The park could be a good way to spend a few days on a budget.

Look at the stars at the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center

Reuben H. Fleet Science CenterThe Fleet Science Center has the only IMAX Dome theater in Southern California, and dozens of interactive science exhibits for both children and adults. While the center itself requires the purchase of a ticket, they offer free stargazing on huge outdoor telescopes, the first Wednesday of each month.

The New Children’s Museum

Located on the marina, the New Children’s Museum aims to help children learn to think and create through play. Children are given hands-on experience creating art and are free to physically explore large art installations. Everyone gets in free on the second Sunday of each month. So if you are planning to visit San Diego with your little ones, the New Children’s Museum is a must see place.

Visit San Diego Zoo

San Diego ZooYou can’t spend some days exploring the New Children’s Museums as your children would possibly get bored very quickly, so visiting a zoo is often a fun option. Tickets to San Diego Zoo may be expensive at $36 each for kids. From time to time, though, the zoo announces free admission for kids below 11. You’ll discover over 4000 animals and experience gorgeous exhibits and habitats.

Enjoy the Frugal Ways to Have Fun in San Diego!
