Here, you can indulge in an overall stress-free environment and enjoy the many relaxing pastimes that can be found all over the region.

Shopping at Westfield North County
For the most basic relaxing weekend with friends you can never go wrong with a little shopping. Whether you’re looking to reoutfit your entire wardrobe or just window shop with your friends, North San Diego has many different shopping outlets to choose from. A popular one is Westfield North County, where you can explore a mix of premium and casual clothing stores.

Wine tasting at Southern California’s oldest Winery
Another thing to do if you are looking for a mellow weekend is visit one of North San Diego’s many wineries. A bout of wine tasting is sure to calm the nerves and leave you feeling stress free. Bernardo Winery is a popular destination for people looking to taste delicious wines and enjoy the natural beauty of the vineyards, along with groves of trees and old style buildings.
For a different vibe you can also visit a local urban winery. The motto at Koi Zen Cellars is “sip back and relax!” and that’s just what you’ll do if you choose to visit with your friends. Wine tasting is a great stress-relieving weekend pastime that will have you forgetting about Monday and the week to come.
Spas are another great way to spend the weekend if you are in dire need of a relaxing getaway, and in North San Diego there are plenty to choose from. Hit up HD Beauty: The Skin Care Boutique for amazing custom facials and other skincare treatments, or try the day spa at Rancho Bernardo Inn where the available treatments span from simple manicures all the way up to amazing body wraps and luxury massages.

Be pampered at the Pala Casino Spa
If you’re a little stumped on where to start or what to do, there’s no need to worry. If you want to try all of these things over the weekend, but are pressed for time, then you’ll want to go to the Pala Casino Spa & Resort, where you can get a little bit of everything and then some. Great food, luxury spa, pool, and other entertainment opportunities; Pala Casino Spa & Resort is a perfect weekend getaway. You can even try gambling while you’re there, although, depending on how good your poker face is, that might not be the most stress-relieving pastime.
With spas, wineries, and several different shopping outlets, the perfect hassle-free weekend is easily attainable in North San Diego.
