Hello. My Name is Local Wally.

How do you find the BEST of San Diego?  You ask a local....but not just any local. You ask Local Wally, the local guy who's been giving straight insider's advice to San Diego tourists and locals alike since 1996. I'm not a big corporation, I'm just a local guy who loves San Diego and wants to make sure you have a great time in my hometown. From finding the best hotel in San Diego to the best restaurants to avoiding the tourist traps, that's that Local Wally is all about.

Whether you're a local looking for things to do or a tourist planning a trip, it's all here - including the things that everyone from Fodors to The Travel Channel misses, and trust me, they miss a lot. But how could they know? They're not locals!

Do you know what parts of town to stay in, and what parts to avoid? Or what Summer month is famous for vacation ruining overcast skies? Where do locals eat and what tourist traps are actually worth visiting? You don't know? Well Local Wally does!

Stick with me and I'll guide you to the best restaurants, the best attractions, the best sunsets, the best places to stay, everything that makes San Diego the perfect spot for vacations and fun. There's no sales pitch, no hidden agenda, just good stuff about San Diego from me to you. If it's good, it's here. If it's not, it's not.

Over the years I’ve been to a lot of wine and food festivals. Some are huge and so busy that getting a glass of wine is harder than returning something at IKEA. Some are so small that they’re barely worth it. But the California Wine Festival at the Carlsbad Park Hyatt Resort is just right, big enough to be festive but small enough that you’ll spend more time sipping than standing in line.

CARLSBAD WINE FESTIVAL

JUNE 28-29, PARK HYATT RESORT IN CARLSBAD

TICKET INFO

Best yet, the prices for the event are so last decade, which makes this one of the best wine and food festival values. Get early bird tickets to the Beachside Festival (which is not on the beach, fyi, but at the Park Hyatt Resort and features rows and rows of booths with unlimited wine and food) for only $75, go fancy with the sunset event for $105, or splurge and do both for just $205. This is my favorite wine event - hope to see you there!
