One of our good friends has a beautiful sea ray in a slip at Camp land. He just offered to take you in the family out for a cruise on the bay if you would like.

Have fun! Campland has been ours and about 8 other family annual 4th of July trip for 10 years+. Lots of stuff for the kids,like the skate park etc…plus easy to get around to restaurants or just chill in the on the beach!

 

[TPC]

Many trips to Campland always good times.

 

[Singleton]

Have fun @ campland.
My kid loves that place, my wallet, not so much.
We also stay at Campland for the OMBAC beach volleyball tournament at the point

 

[Hardly Satisfied]

Have fun and a safe trip. Welcome to our Shit hole state

Put an outside mat by your door or everything inside will be black from dirty feet. They can’t wash that blacktop off because of coastal rules of dirty water finning into the ocean. We like the dirt spots better, everything actually stays a little cleaner.

I wish I had still all the money I spent at the Barefoot bar on Sundays. LOL

 

[Gramps]

RD, if you are still there and want to see some cool "boats" head over to Fisherman's Landing. Point Loma & H and M Landing to see the long range sport fishers. Lunch at Point Loma Sea Foods is damn good while there.

 

[GreenEnergy28]

Heading out there tomorrow for the weekend. Kid is out of school so kicking off his break at CL. Beach cruisers and paddle boards for the win. Spend a little over 2-1/2 hours getting the motor home washed up yesterday.

 

[RVRKID]

Go hit happy hour tomorrow morning..

When I was a kid in the 80's, the Menu used to be a great burger joint. One of the best burgers I've ever had. They were actually better than Rocky's next door IMHO and Rocky burgers are delicious!

 

[hplavey]

So Excited for your trip. Have a Safe and great time. I’ll be watching

Shall I stop by with San Diego's finest Bloody Mary's?

 

[Lavey5150]

Good ole' Campland, that was a family staple as a kid in our Lance Camper and F-350 FORD Sea World,San Diego Zoo,Wild Animal Park
great times for sure.Enjoy!

If you venture down towards Shelter Island hit Bali Hai for a Mai Tai.

Gnarliest Mai Tai I’ve ever had….

 

[Desert Whaler]

Right next to the launch ramp at 'Dana Landing' is a tackle store, they have a great little sandwich shop in there.
Breakfast Burritos are killer as well.
They have tables out front where you can watch the launch ramp antics while you eat.

If you haven't been, Uber down to the Midway and spend a few hours going through the ship.

PS, they serve beer.

Another one I use to go to.

My wife's favorite was/is Cass St. Bar and Grill. Now Tavern at the Beach, was Daily Planet use to be my go to. That or Plum Loco.

When we were dating and would break up I wasn't allowed to go to Cass St. and she wasn't allowed to go the the planet. LOL

Both awesome places. Are you old enough to remember Tugg's Tavern, Old Ox, Open Bar, Penthouse, Beachcomber etc? All great beach haunts for a local PB kid.

 

[CarolynandBob]

Remember Old Ox and Beachcomber. Don't remember Tuggs or Open Bar. There was another more dance type place. Think it was called tremors or something like that. It was called something else before Tremors, but I can remember the name. I think it was a two word name back in 1993 ish.

 

[Outdrive1]

I like all the suggestions for Dave. Especially considering he grew up in the San Diego area and lived there his entire life until he moved to Havasu. Lol.

He was NORTH county.

 

[riverroyal]

Theres nothing south of cardiff.

 

[Desert Whaler]

Theres nothing south of cardiff.

There's pretty much nothing south of the Oregon border . . .

 

[2FORCEFULL]

best thing to do in so cal is hang out in your RV with the doors locked....and for sure don't let your kids talk to strangers...

 

[spark2678]

Costa Vista is our new spot. Campland is nice too.

 

[Havasu Surfer]

Dave hopefully you ended up on “J” row which faces the grass and stage. Volleyball and beach is close so you can still see the kids playing and the bar is only across the way. Party on!

 

[stephenkatsea]

Previously mentioned, but I'll repeat it. Point Loma Sea Food, near the sportfishing landings, is outstanding. Timing your visit with the arrival of some fishing boats can be good. They're getting some very nice Tuna now. Typically you'll see them layed out for viewing and collection by those who caught them. Can be very impressive.

 

[RiverDave]

Theres nothing south of cardiff.

Lol. Pretty much.. although the first Roberto’s was in solans beach if I remember right.

 

[RiverDave]

I have a ton of photos to upload, that I will
Do today. We spent a lot of time at campland and the kids loved it.

We will definitely go again.. especially since We get a free stay!

 

[rivermobster]

Loved renting the Hobie Cats there. Always a great place to stay!

 

[Desert Whaler]

Not sure if this is still possible . . . but we used to roll over to the bait receiver w/ a 5 gallon bucket and flip the dude some cash for a pass of sardines or chovies.
Then idlle over to the Barefoot Bar where they have the calico bass and yellowtail free-swimming and feed them . . . it was like Sea World feeding the fish !

 

[RiverDave]

So finally getting around to uploading the photos..

What I didn’t put into the thread was Stacy wadded an e bike pretty good at campland.

I was hoping her injuries would feel better in a day or so.. unfortunately it’s getting worse.

She went to the urgent care and it turns out unfortunately she broke a rib. .

She is in a terrible amount of pain. She can’t lay down to sleep, she can’t get up without help. This deal sucks and I feel terrible for her.

 

[RiverDave]

We had a great time at sea world the kids loved it.. we rented an electric scooter for me. Not sure I will ever goto a theme park without one again.. the best! Lol

Hope she heals up fast, broken ribs suck.
I am recovering now from pulling some muscle off a rib.

[RiverDave]

Checking out across the bay and some night shots.. fajitas!!

 

[jeteater1]

Man broken ribs suck , I pretty much sat and slept in a recliner when I did mine. Feel better Stacy.
