An Old-Fashioned Tradition

In San Diego's South Bay region, there's a slice of Americana that time almost forgot: the drive-in movie theater. With multiple screens, state-of-the-art projectors and San Diego's average 70-degree weather, this cinematic experience offers the perfect night for families, cheap first dates or longtime lovers looking to rekindle their youth. Ticket prices are less than the multiplexes and so are the concessions. You can buy popcorn and candy from the drive-in or bring your own. The details:

South Bay Drive-in Theatres

Opened in 1958, the South Bay Drive-in Theatres show a double feature on each of three screens. Movies are shown daily, year-round. On each screen, movies are paired to complement each other, meaning there is always something showing for everyone. And if you are looking for that unique item or gift, the South Bay Drive-in also hosts an outdoor swap meet on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays. The South Bay Drive-In is perfect for the budget-conscious traveling family or for those looking to relive the glory days of yore with a movie under the stars.
