Activities San Diego & Pacific Beach

Activities CEL San Diego & Pacific Beach - Discovering San Diego & California

Our dedicated activity coordinator compiles a weekly program exclusively for students, so there is always something exciting planned for you! These activities are not compulsory, but we do encourage students to participate and sign up if they are interested.

Activities like kayaking at La Jolla Shores and exploring the world famous San Diego Zoo are scheduled during the week, while exciting excursions to Las Vegas, San Francisco and the Grand Canyon are arranged during the weekend. Free activities are offered on Tuesdays and the remaining trips are offered at discounted prices.

Often times, the activities program is combined between our schools in San Diego and Pacific Beach – this is a great opportunity for students to connect with others and make new friends!

With nearly perfect year-round weather, you can test out your surfing skills any time at Pacific Beach.
Excursions to Los Angeles are arranged during the weekend.
The crimson bridge, cable cars and eclectic mix of architecture make San Francisco one of the greatest cities in California.
Escape the bustling city and take a road trip to the Rocky Mountains over the weekend.
A trip to Las Vegas is a must during your visit to the United States.
Enjoy spectacular views as you explore the Grand Canyon in Arizona.
