Top things to do in La Jolla
"Beneath the bluffs of Torrey Pines in La Jolla is a hidden gem. Black’s Beach, a swimsuit-optional beach, stretches from Torrey Pines State Beach at the north end to Scripps Beach at the south end, making it the largest nude beach in the United States."
"2800 Torrey Pines Scenic DriveLa Jolla, CA 92037(619) 221-8899. Black’s Beach is a secluded waterfront just below the bluffs of Torey Pines. It looks towards the Pacific Ocean."
"The southern section of Black’s Beach, also known as Torrey Pines City Beach, is accessible through a gate at the intersection of Blackgold Road and La Jolla Farms Road."
"Wipeout Beach is located on the 700 block of Coast Blvd., and is a sandy stretch of beach just south of South Casa Beach and the Children’s Pool. It’s a great spot for sunbathing, but again isn’t recommended for inexperienced swimmers because of the rip current. Low tide is probably the best time to visit this spot, as there’s more sand to walk along and you’ll be able to see a few shallower exposed tide pools."
"Swimming:Yes, but the Current Can Be Rough Surfing: NoBoogie Boarding: Not the Best SpotBest For: Walking the Beach At Low Tide. This is the largest beach in downtown La Jolla. Stairs lead from the walkway down to the top of a set of rocks, and from there you hop right down to the sand."
"Wipeout Beach is a sandy beach south of Children’s Pool Beach along Coast Boulevard in La Jolla. In the winter the sand gets ripped away by storms leaving a rugged […]"
"Built in the 1930s, La Jolla’s Children’s Pool was created as a family beach space, but since then it's been descended on by herds of seals and sea lions. Despite the pinnipeds' particularly pungent odor, tourists come in droves to see them larking around, swimming, fighting and mating. Visitors can get extremely close via a concrete platform surrounding the cove, and the seals don't seem to mind – but there's strictly no touching, feeding or selfies to be taken with the seals."
"Why go: It’s popular for bodysurfing and views from the walkway above and adjacent to La Jolla Cove. Boomer Beach is located just to the west of Ellen Browning Scripps Park and south of the Cove. It’s one of the smaller, lesser known beaches in La Jolla, and its exposure to stronger ocean waves and currents makes it less popular than neighboring Cove."
"Boomer Beach is located on the exposed western side of Ellen Browning Scripps Park in La Jolla. Because of exposure to the strong ocean waves it is less popular than […]"
"Boomer Beach is a small and ‘hidden’ waterfront located in Ellen Browning Scripps Park and is near La Jolla Cove Beach."
"Indigo Grill specializes in American, Californian, fusion and Southwestern cuisine. In addition to great food, drinks are served at the restaurant’s full service bar. The ambiance is calm and casual, making it a great place to eat with family, friends, or a group of coworkers."
"When The Hake temporarily shuttered after a successful two-year run and move across Prospect St, the new ocean view was the main focus. It should’ve been on the new chef though, Aarti Sanghavi, whose food shows the synergy and parallels between the Indian cuisine of her heritage and the Latin stylings of The Hake’s menu. Take her superlative opah chorizo."
"Many of us have canine friends we want to get an evening walk and soak up some sun, especially if we’ve been working all day. Turns out you can have your wine and walk your dog, too!. This venue’s patio is dog friendly, so you can bring Rover and let him enjoy exploring the outside world while you explore a new Riesling."
"The buzz:The Puffer/Malarkey Collective’s finally reopens with a dynamic new culinary director.The food: Now under the helm of acclaimed chef Tara Monsod, it has a lighter, more Southeast Asian focused menu. Sip a Chai Paloma (tequila, coconut chai, cinnamon, grapefruit) alongside savory uni shrimp toast or sweet and sour cauliflower. Then explore the sake menu while you indulge in A5 Wagyu, Shanghai crab noodles with snap peas, garlic chili butter, and cilantro, or Kare Kare Short Ribs with green beans, and eggplant.The cost: Hot and cold starters are $7-22, entrees go for $24-69, cocktails are $14-19, beer and wine by the glass are $8-25, and sake flights run $25.How to book: Make reservations for indoor dining via OpenTable."
"Money can't buy happiness but it can buy you and your someone special a palate-pleasing pan-Asian feast of Korean fried chicken, 45-day dry-aged rib eye, Ora king salmon with pomegranate ponzu, or a variety of delicious crudos at "Top Chef" contestant Brian Malarkey’s latest entry in the San Diego fine dining scene. The space, a $5.5 million project, is awash in sumptuous shades of gold, chartreuse, and coral from the elegant chandeliers to the custom carpeting. Both can be admired while sipping something from the quality Japanese whisky collection."
"Make dinner a truly grand affair at San Diego's "it" restaurant, Animae. The 5.5 million dollar pan-Asian restaurant sprawls across 9,300 square feet and the ambiance is opulent and seductive. If you go on Valentine's Day, they offer a four-course menu for $95/person."
"Del MarThe view at many oceanfront restaurants comes with a price hike, but only one item, the Lobster Club, is over $20 at this peaceful and seaside stunner with casual, beachy decor and a view that draws eyes toward the horizon. The menu’s a good size, with meat, fish, and vegetarian dishes, plus the famous Hula Pie (macadamia nut ice cream pie with chocolate cookie crust, hot fudge, toasted macadamia nuts, and whipped cream). Save room for a slice..."
