Brew up an unforgettable romantic evening as the two of you make your way to Stockton's Valley Brewing Company. This highly noted spot has won kudos as the top sports bar, the top happy hour and the top brew pub in the city by its ever-growing legion of faithful patrons. Stop in after work or later in the evening for a great meal, a super drink selection and great live entertainment.

Stockton was once home to a thriving Filipino culture. While many Filipinos still make their home here, the older generation may remember when they were all concentrated in the Little Manila section of the city. Today, only three buildings are still standing from what was once the largest thriving Filipino community in the United States. The stories, struggles, triumphs and contributions of the Filipino culture to Stockton's growth can be traced back here. Take a dramatic tour of the Iloilo Circle, the Dimasalang House and the Daguhoy Lodge, the three remaining structures that preserve the Filipino history quite fittingly.

The kids will surely jump at the chance to rev it up and go when you take them to visit the Delta Speedway. This attraction is located in San Joaquin County Fairgrounds and has been in operation since 1986. This track is an 1/8 mile dirt oval that accommodates microsprint cars that kids from 5 years of age and up can enjoy. The whole family will be entertained by the rumble of these smaller-than-usual engines as they speed toward the finish line.

Enjoying the calming, picturesque combination of the wind and the water is what makes setting sail from the Stockton Sailing Club so appealing. The club offers a safe and attractive environment for you, your family and your sailing vessel that features a secure yet efficient boat harbor from which you can set sail. Access the deep water channel while still being close to various amenities that include restaurants and easy access to I-5 and 99 freeways.
