Sounds like a great trip! The best route from
L.A.
to
San Diego
is along I-5 S. The 129-mile journey will take approximately 2 hours.
Here’s a breakdown of the route:
  • Depending on where you live in Los Angeles, you can either get on I-5 S or I-405 S
  • If you take I-405 S, continue south until you merge with I-5 S in Irvine
  • Continue on I-5 S until you arrive at your destination in San Diego
