The Beach Boys wished they all could be California girls. The truth is, they should all be southern California girls. SoCal, thats what the locals call Southern California, it is where the action is. Its the greatest place on earth, traveling north to south, here is what you must stop and see!

The Pacific Coastal Highway: This may be the worlds best drive, and for ocean lovers, it definitely is the worlds best drive. Start in northern or central California (San Francisco is a great starting place) and go south all the way down to San Diego. Youll see more scenic coastlines and beautiful seas in a few days than most sailors see in a lifetime. This piece of roadway also happens to be a few hundred miles of the most famous and historic highways in the entire US. If views fit for a painting and isolated white sand beaches are your thing, then take this drive, believe me you will not be dissapointed. Relax along the coast as the waves crash against the bluffs below.

The Santa Monica Pier: Boston, New York City and Panama City have nothing over this pier. Visit it at night, then take in the shops and ride the giant Ferris wheel located on the actual pier. Enjoy the night air and brilliant lights. Stroll through the shops, people watch, or go for a long romantic walk along the beach shore. You will love the Santa Monica Pier.

LA and Hollywood Boulevard: Look for your favorite actor or entertainer along the Hollywood Walk of Stars. With three miles of stars, youll find both your current favorites from Johnny Depp to Oprah Winfrey and a thousand oh, I remember him stars from years gone by. While there, dine in a legendary eatery. Have a burger at Whiskey A Go Go–where Janis Joplin, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix performed–or ingest a steak at the Viper Room. With hundreds of malt shops, souvenir stores, and strip malls, youll find treasures galore. Hint: save time by parking in one of the parking garages. You can have your parking slip validated with nearly any local purchase.

San Diego Zoo: They dont call it the world famous San Diego Zoo for nothing. Its one of the few places where you can gaze on giant pandas, koala bears, and 90 acres of tropic plants all in one place. Its a hilly place, so buy a ticket for the bus ride. You wont want to miss thing–and try riding the sky ride at night for an absolutely unforgettable view of San Diegos Balboa Park, Coronado Island, the San Diego Bay.

Sea World: Shamu! Shamu! Shamu! This park bring together killer whales, trained seals and roller coasters. It has something for everyone. You can do it all. Touch a starfish, feed a stingray, watch a 3D movie, and sit in the soak zone. During the summer, stay for the closing fireworks show as an added treat!
