Seven Hottest Nightclubs

After a day at the beach or touring San Diego, a night on the town is the perfect complement. The heart of San Diego's nightlife action is found in Downtown's lively Gaslamp Quarter — a historic and highly walkable district filled with rooftop bars, hot nightclubs boasting celebrity DJs, moody jazz clubs, undercover speakeasies and happening restaurants. And beyond Downtown, find lively beach bars and iconic music venues where you can raise a glass to the good life, San Diego-style. .
