Kids Free San Diego – Over 100 Deals In October
San Diego is just a quick drive south for us here in Orange County so my family and I travel there often. There are big-name attractions such as LEGOLAND California, SeaWorld San Diego, San Diego Zoo, and more. The beautiful weather in San Diego makes it an ideal travel destination year round, but if you have a big family and want to save some money while having fun then October is the best month to visit.
30 years ago the San Diego Zoo decided to celebrate the month it was founded by admitting children free throughout October. Then the San Diego Museum Council—made up of more than 30 museums—got on board, and now there are 100+ partners. Throughout the month of October, kids can stay, and play for free all over San Diego. You can visit the website Kids Free San Diego to review a complete list of all participating hotels, restaurants, museums, attractions, and more.
Tips before you travel:
- Check the Kids Free San Diego website before you go. Every establishment has its own terms for this promotion. Some require that you purchase online, some require you present a coupon upon arrival.
- Look at hours/days of operation. When looking at museums to visit I noticed a lot were closed on Mondays.
- Map your trip. Many of the participating locations are very close to one another. You might be able to visit several locations in a day or weekend trip.
- Plan accordingly when you get closer to Halloween. Several locations, especially the larger attractions, have special events for Halloween and may have shorter hours or require additional tickets for these events. Plus, these locations will probably be much busier during these events.
Here are a few of the offers that my family and I will be taking advantage of:
