You and the kids could easily spend an entire day at Balboa Park — and still come back for more. For starters, you have the San Diego Zoo, voted the best in the world. More than just lions, tigers and bears, the zoo features more than 3,700 animals from more than 660 species.
If museums are your thing, you’re in for a treat. Choose from 17 museums featuring an array of exhibits. Explore the world of dinosaurs at the San Diego Natural History Museum. Head to the San Diego Air & Space Museum to get close to historic aircraft and spacecraft from around the world, plus see artifacts from the Wright Brothers, Amelia Earhart, Neil Armstrong and more.
This is just a part of what you can experience. Take in a ballet, puppet show or musical in one of 10 performance spaces. Stroll through more than a dozen gardens, each with a unique story to tell. And if the kids still have some energy, choose from multiple playgrounds throughout the park. The possibilities for family fun abound in Balboa Park.
