Hi there /trv/
I have lived in SoCal my whole life and was wondering what are fun things to do around here that are not Disneyland, SeaWorld, or a beach. There are tons of things that I have done here over the years but I cant think of anything exciting to do so thought I might see what cool things tourists or other locals have found or thought of that I wouldnt have.

oh and for frame of reference my travel distance is as far north as LA or as far south as San Diego. So anywhere between that range is good. I am super familiar with San Diego than LA so there is a lot I havent done up in LA

There are a lot of good hikes. In the summer, you can take the lift up to the middle of Mount Baldy and then hike up the Devil's Backbone trail. There are a lot of good waterfall trails in the Spring when they're flowing, Sturtevant Falls, Monrovia Falls, Eaton Canyon Falls, and Switzer Falls are all great. I like bar hop in Costa Mesa at all of the breweries. Start at Green Cheek and just walk up the street and check them all out. That' a great area for food too. If you haven't been to the Anaheim Packing District yet, that's pretty great. I like biking on the Balboa Peninsula. Go see some bands at the Observatory or the Garden Amp. There's always Knotts Berry Farm and 6 Flags. You can take a road trip up 395 and go in the back entrance to Yosemite. You could go to Temecula and do a wine/beer tour.
