Eggstone in San Diego is the debut album by Swedish indie pop band Eggstone, first released in Sweden in October 1992. The album was recorded over a period of a year, using second hand reel-to-reel tapes of dansbandsmusik, sometimes causing previous recordings to bleed through. Eggstone in San Diego is credited as being the album that established the "Tambourine Sound" and "introduced a completely new colour scheme to Swedish pop".
In June 2013, the album was ranked as the 39th-best Swedish album ever by Sonic Magazine.
The album is one of the titles in the book Tusen svenska klassiker (2009).
Eggstone in San Diego was re-issued on vinyl in 1997 by Vibrafon Records, and again by Crunchy Frog Records in 2017.
