Passport to Paradise: Or, Just Down the Coast?
So, you're dreaming of sun, surf, and tacos. And you're thinking, "San Diego, here I come!" But hold on a sec, hotshot. Before you start packing your swim trunks and your passport, let's clear something up: Do you actually need a passport to go from Los Angeles to San Diego?
Let's dive in.
California Dreaming: No Passport Required
The short answer is: Nope, no passport needed. San Diego and Los Angeles are both in California, which is a state in the United States of America. So, unless you're planning on taking a detour to Mars or the moon, you're good to go with just your driver's license.
Imagine rocking up to the airport with a full-blown passport, only to realize you're going to the next town over. That would be like using a bazooka to kill a mosquito, right?
But Wait, There’s a Catch!
Okay, so you don't need a passport to get to San Diego. But if you're planning a day trip to Tijuana, Mexico, which is just a hop, skip, and a jump away from San Diego, then yes, you'll need a passport. And maybe a sombrero for good measure.
Passport or Not, San Diego Awaits
So, whether you're a passport-carrying adventurer or a chill California cruiser, San Diego is ready to welcome you with open arms (and amazing tacos). Just remember, leave the passport at home unless you're crossing that border.
