Nature unlike any other

California is a year-round destination, with weather that has something for everyone, from sun worshippers to snow bunnies. The best time to visit really comes down to what you want to see and do. The Golden State’s flower show is always beautiful, but the high-octane version of the annual display known as the “superbloom” is something you shouldn’t miss. What makes the magic happen is that the Superblooms occur when rain falls in frequent intervals between October and February—especially when that rain follows a long period of drought. This leads to widespread germination of wildflower seeds that may have lain dormant for years.
Ski with a difference

With more than 30 ski resorts and numerous opportunities for downhill, cross-country, and backcountry adventures, California offers a wide range of skiing and snowboarding options, perfect for any skill or budget. On Independence Day at Mammoth Mountain, skiers and snowboarders shred the slopes wearing shorts and tank tops instead of parkas and ski pants. Mammoth’s high altitude, deep snowpack, and north-facing trails produce one of the West’s longest ski seasons, typically lasting from November through July.
Our farms make you fly

Embark on a culinary journey that combines the thrill of adventure with the freshest flavors of California’s farm-to-table movement. At Ancient Peaks in Santa Margarita, soar above the vineyards on six separate ziplines spanning 7,500 feet and taste your way throughout the town. Board a helicopter in Monterey or Watsonville for the flight to Eden Rift Vineyards, then sip and swirl from the seat of a Polaris ATV. At Calistoga’s Sterling Vineyards, hop on the newly reopened aerial gondola and glide 300 feet uphill to the Greek-inspired place, and taste the delicacies of Napa Valley.
Our museums are playful
All ages enjoy the curiosity-igniting exhibits at San Francisco’s innovative Exploratorium. Youngsters can experiment and play while adults admire the waterfront views from this spectacular steel and glass structure at Pier 15. But the Exploratorium is just one example; throughout California, museums cater to a myriad of interests, from art and history to science and technology.
