The San Diego Botanic Garden features 37 acres of stunning views, trails, beautiful trees, and exotic and local plants including the largest collection of bamboo in the world. Because of San Diego’s temperate weather, there are more than 4,000 thriving species of plants from around the globe in the gardens.

At the Natural Overlook Area, you can enjoy magnificent views of the Pacific Ocean through a free viewing telescope. You should allow 2 to 4 hours to enjoy the gardens. For those travelling with kids, there are 2 children’s gardens featuring endless play options including a Mountain Stream, Toni’s Tree House, and Music Making area.

Highlights of the San Diego Botanic Garden

You will find 29 different gardens at the San Diego Botanic Garden, each featuring a distinct theme. In the Mediterranean Garden, you can explore a forest of cork oak trees, take in the fragrance of rosemary, lavender, and rock rose, and view beautiful cyclamen, irises, and daffodils.

The Dickinson Family Education Conservatory is a favourite amongst guests with its display of rare and remarkable tropical plants and beautiful “plant chandeliers” that flow down from the ceilings. Other gardens include the Undersea Succulent Garden, Walled Garden, Mexican Garden, Native Plants and Native People Trail, and Canary Islands Garden.
