Are you ready to spring forward?

As Daylight Saving begins, why not soak up the extra hour of sunlight starting Sunday at San Diego’s best outdoor bars and restaurants? From beachfront views to rooftop vibes, these local favorites are the place to make the most of the extra hour of sunshine.

Mavericks Beach Club, located steps from the sand in Pacific Beach, offers open-air seating, live DJs, cocktails, five indoor/outdoor bars, an expansive patio and coastal-inspired bites.

Sandbar Sports Bar & Grill in Mission Beach has one of the best local rooftop views to enjoy the extra hour of daylight. Watch the sunset over the water from the Skydeck or have a bite of their award-winning fish tacos.

Located in Little Italy, Coco Maya‘s coastal-inspired rooftop bar has a open-air setting for sipping tropical cocktails.

For those in North County, PRK 101, a beach smokehouse in Carlsbad Village, has dining, lounging and sipping, with a focus on sports enthusiasts and country music lovers.

Perched at the top of the historic Brick Hotel in Oceanside is Cococabana, where the rooftop cocktail bar offers views of the ocean and downtown. Enjoy a cocktail, like the Oside Rider, or snack on offerings from The Lobby Tiki Bar & Grill.

Catch the last light of the day at Quiero Restaurants, which shares a space with Mike Hess Brewing in Seaport Village and looks out to the west over San Diego Bay. This laid-back taco spot serves up fresh, Baja-style bites with a waterfront backdrop. Grab traditional tacos like carnitas and carne asada, seafood selections like spicy shrimp and tropical salmon or vegetarian options like portobello and zucchini.
