Now that it’s becoming safer to travel, families are hittin’ the road with restored gratitude and a newfound enthusiasm to discover their surroundings. Desperate to make up for “lost time” and missed opportunities, many people have the same idea as campground reservations fill and RV sales skyrocket. If you’re one of the families chomping at the bit to explore the great outdoors, you’ll want to tap into what we’re doing this month and next—sharing camping tips, helpful resources and some of our favorite SoCal spots to camp. According to Visit California, our state is home to nine national parks and 280 state parks, so there’s no need to go far—adventure awaits in our own backyard! San Diego Metro KOA Resort Chula Vista In addition to RV and tent sites, our local KOA offers camping cabins, deluxe cabins (with bathrooms), glamping tents, and plenty of amenities for families, including an onsite pool, jumping pillows, grass field, playground and more. www .koa.com/campgrounds/san-diego Sun Outdoors San Diego Bay Chula Vista Have you heard?
