San Diego is blessed with some of the best fishing piers in the state, including two that are nearly 2,000 feet long.

Cannon battles, monumental sand sculptures, music (some with cannons) and more along the Embarcadero will easily provide enough entertainment for everyone during the 3 day Labor Day weekend. Find out after the break the great events you don’t want to miss.
