San Diego is beautiful and warm. Too nice for rednecks, but they all commute down from Simi Valley. (Where Rodney King got beat up.) Nice beaches too. It is about an hour from LA which is where everything is really going on. (its loaded with so many things to do) Stay away from Tijuana. They still have the drug war going on.
If you are still in the planning phase check the almanac for how the weather will be around the time you are planning on going.
