Our family is planning a week long vacation to the San Diego area for March and I am looking at vacation rentals in Carlsbad and Imperial Beach. Can anyone familiar with these areas tell me which would be better for a family beach vacation? We plan to do some activities like Harbor Tours, The San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld and some amusement parks. We are renting a car so driving is not a problem for us, we are actually looking forward to some scenic drives!

Mission Bay was another location we are considering.
