Sun Setting over J St. Marina
Favorite thing: Chula Vista is not a place most people think of when planning a vacation, unless they have family or friends living here, but people who live here can have a "vacation" everyday without leaving their own town. Which also implies that a tourist can have a relaxing holiday in Chula Vista if they are not craving crowds.
Fondest memory: One of my favorite places in Chula Vista is the J Street Marina.
The harbor area of Chula Vista is still not completely developed, and maybe that is what makes it so nice. Off the J Street exit from I-5 going west, is a narrow strip of park, well suited for large birthday parties and every weekend that's exactly what you'll see. Beyond that are a couple of generously sized parking lots and a boat launching ramp--one of few in San Diego County. This is also a location for car conventions held occasionally to show off the pride of car clubs.
The Chula Vista Yacht Club and the Marina is next. South Bay Fish & Grill has replaced Bob's on the Bay and the Galley at the Marina is still open and very popular with live music on weekends. There are a few shops, the RV Park and then comes Bayside Park, complete with fishing pier. Anytime, day or night I enjoy myself here and though I live only a few minutes away, spending time here is like having a mini-vacation.
