Itinerary Overview

Route: San Francisco to San Diego
Total Distance: Approximately 500 miles

A few MUST pack items:

• Comfy sandals that protect and can benefit your entire body. The Cascade by Protalus is great if you spend long days in heels and are on your feet most days. It reduces pain, fatique across your feet, knees and back. It also pairs nicely with most outfits and you’ll own this pair for years to come. Made, SO WELL.

• Sunscreen is key - Every day no matter the year and no matter where you live is sunscreen day. Our favorite: LA Sol Collective

• A powerful, yet light moisturizer. The Omega Water Cream moisturizer by The Inkey List is beyond hydrating for your skin and is so light you forget you even have it on.

• Your favorite sunny’s - Akila has all kinds of collections to fit your style or personality.
