About San Diego

San Diego sits in the southwest corner of California, right next to the border with Mexico. It is known for its beaches, mild climate, Balboa Park and its zoo, and it is home to a large US Navy presence, a strong biotech sector and the annual Comic-Con convention.

The city runs on Pacific Time, UTC-8 in winter and UTC-7 (PDT) in summer, matching Los Angeles and San Francisco. Tijuana, just across the border, follows the same US-style clock changes, so the two cities keep identical time all year, which simplifies cross-border commuting and business. San Diego is three hours behind New York.
