Regional Information Fun GetawaysLooking for great “staycation” ideas? Just visiting and want to know what’s within striking distance? Here’s the good news: there’s lots to enjoy close to Pasadena! Venture off to Ventura, a classic SoCal beach town just an hour’s drive north for a flashback to the good ol’ days of woodies, surfboards and a Beach Boys soundtrack. Just south is San Diego, home to Balboa Park, the largest urban cultural park in the U.S., and the world famous San Diego Zoo. Get up close and personal with a giant panda. Motor east for a taste of the good life, desert style, in that posh, cosmopolitan oasis, Palm Springs. From there, it’s only a short hop to Joshua Tree where you can get seriously back to nature.
