Outdoor Holiday Merriment

Getting outdoors during the holidays is a San Diego pastime

San Diego Ice Skating, Holiday Races, and More…

Thanks to year-round moderate temperatures, getting outdoors during the holidays is second nature in San Diego. Enjoy ice skating by the ocean, cheer on your favorite team during a bowl game, or push yourself with a physical challenge such as a Holiday Run. Or simply stroll along the beach and enjoy the warmth of the season, San Diego-style.
