Chula Vista is the county’s second largest city. From a scenic bay front that stretches along the coast to the master-planned communities and San Miguel Mountain in the east. Chula Vista has a major redevelopment project underway in the urban core; a world-class bay front is in the works, and a wondrous plan to build a regional four-year university.

Chula Vista is proud to be home to multi-sport U.S. Olympic Training Center, a nationally recognized concert venue, a wildlife preserve, a popular water theme park and South Chula Vista has the San Diego Country Club. The concert venue called Cricket Wireless Amphitheatre is an outdoor performing arts theater on an attractively landscaped lawn. The amphitheatre is located just 17 minutes from downtown San Diego in Chula Vista, and is the area's first major concert facility designed specifically for music. Also, San Diego County's newest and wildest water adventure park, Knott’s Soak City is a thirty-two water-logged acres packed with 22 of the most intense water rides imaginable! And it’s all themed to the surf woodies and long boards of the 1950s San Diego coast!
