In the mood for a movie? But in a quandary, because you also feel like being outdoors? If you're in the Santee area, you're in luck.

Off Woodside in Santee is the Santee Drive-in Movie Theatre. Open year round, this is one of the last remaining open theatres in San Diego. Stop by while you still can.

No graffiti, no gunshots, and no busted ovens here at the South Bay Drive-In in Imperial Beach, CA. This place is a pretty boring locale. Another drive-in that's open year-round.
