Sightseeing
Waterfront shopping and dining, adjacent to the San Diego Bay, at the intersection of Harbor Drive and Kettner. Stroll around and spend an afternoon. This area of unique shops and restaurants is one of the city's must sees. Picnic tables, benches, and waterfront patios are throughout the area and weekends can be very busy. Outdoor performers take to the stage regularly in the afternoons, some of which can be quite eclectic. Easily accessible on foot from many of the nearby attractions including the USS Midway. Since there is limited and expensive parking at Seaport Village, it may be best to park a little distance away and enjoy the stroll along the waterfront to the site... or use Uber, or Lyft.
