Visit San Jose, California: Dining, Nightlife & Wineries

Though it’s best known as the capital of Silicon Valley, San Jose is also one of Northern California’s top family destinations. There's plenty of kid friendly fun that we have here. Spring down the rails of great America or slip on some swimming trunks and splash at the wave pool. For more wet fun in the sun splash around on one of raging water’s exciting rides. For an exciting way to spend a fun filled day, head to the children’s discovery museum. We chose a number of interactive exhibits that will educate and entertain. Be sure to stop by the indoor theatre for music, dance, and more.

Right young minds contest their skills at the Tech Museum of Innovation with more than 240 unique hands on exhibits. Kids can shake in an earthquake or even fly at jetpack simulators. The Tech Museum offers the whole family an unforgettable experience. And whatever you do watch your step while exploring the strange and wacky Winchester mystery house famous for it’s stairways to nowhere and doors that open to blank walls. With more than 300 sunny days a year you're sure to catch some California rays. Have a picnic at the Japanese Friendship Garden or enjoy dining outside in San Pedro square.

For a taste of San Jose’s past, check out History San Jose and the history park where pieces of yesterday are frozen in time. Then for a little excitement, grab the kids and cheer on the San Jose sharks at the world’s only shark tank covered with a sheet of ice. And since no trip to California is complete without a day at the beach be sure to visit the Santa Cruz boardwalk with it’s golden beaches and outdoor amusement park. With so many places to make family memories, San Jose is one place your kids will always remember.
