San Diego is known for its sunny beaches, world-class attractions, and now, its one-of-a-kind cannabis experience. Sessions by the Bay is San Diego’s only cannabis lounge, making it the ideal spot for tourists to explore California’s cannabis culture safely and comfortably.
Here’s why Sessions by the Bay is a must-visit for any traveler looking to elevate their San Diego experience.
A Safe and Legal Place to Enjoy Cannabis
For tourists visiting California, finding a safe and legal place to consume cannabis can be a challenge.
Under California law, cannabis consumption is strictly prohibited in public places, including beaches, parks, sidewalks, and hotels.
This means that for those without access to private property, enjoying cannabis can be difficult and even risky.
Sessions by the Bay is the only venue in San Diego County where visitors can legally and comfortably consume cannabis in a public, social setting.
Our cannabis lounge provides a welcoming space to enjoy cannabis products with friends, making it the ideal choice for tourists seeking a safe and enjoyable experience.
