You can visit the Star of India sailing vessel which is near the Midway aircraft carrier. Point Loma lighthouse is a must on a clear day. You get a view of the city and if you are lucky you can see migrating whales. Balboa Park is beautiful with the flower gardens and museums. Old Town is fabulous with great shops and wonderful places to eat - mostly Mexican food. At the top of the hill in Old town is The Presidio, where San Diego began. Father Junipero Serra built the first mission there. Lots to see and do in San Diego and all of these places are very close to the downtown area.
