"910 Prospect St, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA Inventive takes on seasonal cuisine amongst chic, contemporary decor in the Grande Colonial Hotel."

"Owned by restaurateur Bertrand Hug, the eponymous Bertrand at Mister A’s is an award-winning fine-dining restaurant featuring modern American cuisine imbued with French and Mediterranean flavours as well as an extensive wine list and signature cocktails. Whether in the casual yet elegant interior or outside on a balcony complete with stunning views of San Diego, diners can feast upon seasonal lunch, dinner and brunch dishes. Between the incredible view, delectable fare and attentive service, it is one culinary experience not to be missed."

"A little ways outside of downtown, there’s nothing that compares to the view of Mister A’s. Big ol’ jet airliners will ride past on approach and departure, using the ocean as backdrop with the city skyline showing off its wares. The hype is real, with the food and drinks perfecting the tableau."

"With roots as a jacket-required dinner room, Bertrand's has since turned to a more casual atmosphere while continuing to provide one of the best penthouse restaurant experiences in California.[Learn more]"

"As is perhaps appropriate given the origins of both the term and the practice of “al fresco,” we’ll begin with this local favorite of Continental cuisine. North Italia offers fresh, handmade pastas, pizzas, and other classic Italian favorites, all chef-prepared every day. The convenient location inside Fashion Valley Mall offers not just leisurely dining and takeout at a responsibly distanced outdoor setting, but also an upscale shopping adventure right nearby"

"Need an excuse to venture across the bridge and into scenic Coronado?. Blue Bridge Hospitality's Village Pizzeria located on the gorgeous Bayside offers unparalleled views of the San Diego skyline in a relaxed setting that caters to children and adults alike. Every Wednesday, kids eat free from 4 p.m."

"You’ll find this local favorite south of the village, in La Jolla’s seaside neighborhood of Bird Rock just a couple blocks from the ocean. This hidden gem has been around for over 12 years and serves breakfast on Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 am – 3:00 pm; we recommend making a reservation for weekend brunch. They have a Mexican inspired menu and two of our favorites are the Relleno & Eggs, a pasilla pepper stuffed with pulled pork, crema, Mexican salsa, and queso fresco served with corn tortillas or the Carne Asada Benedict, an English muffin topped with carne asada, avocado, cilantro, and hollandaise served with breakfast potatoes."

"Saturday and SundaySpecials: Street tacos and sliders, 2 for $8.50 or 3 for $10.50 | $6.50 mules, mojitos, margaritas and house wine | other food and drink specialsOcean View: NoWhy Go: Beaumont’s is popular with locals in Bird Rock as you can sit anywhere in the restaurant (main dining room, covered patio or bar) to enjoy a mellow La Jolla happy hourNeighborhood: Bird RockAddress: 5662 La Jolla Blvd."

"Located in sleepy Bird Rock, Beaumont's Eatery is loved by locals as an upscale-casual gathering spot for its seasonal menu, craft cocktails and live music. The contemporary interior of the restaurant features rich colors and bright accents. It's a good place to go with friends for share plates (like Korean street tacos, wild boar sausage flatbreads and more)."

"For some decently priced Fast Food takeout, check out the Fast Food spots tagged with one “$” in Escondido."

"This two-mile strip of secluded beach below the cliffs of the Torrey Pines Gliderport (adjacent to the UC San Diego campus immediately south of Torrey Pines State Beach) is known for two things: (i) nude beach, and (ii) surfing. The beach is named for the Black family, who formerly owned a farm on the cliffs above. They later sold the farm, and it was developed into the expensive residential homes of La Jolla Farms."

"A beautiful section of beach south of Torrey Pines and located in the northern part of La Jolla, this beach is known as a de facto nude beach. Popular with nudists and naturalists, this beach is one of the last nude beaches in the state. Do not venture to the south side of the beach unless you are prepared to see more than just marine life in its natural state."

"It has wide sandy beaches for typical beach recreation and is also a favorite surfing spot. Lifeguards are on duty only during the summer months. Find public showers above the beach access, but there are no public restrooms."

"For ridiculously tall sea cliffs, head to Torrey Pines City Beach at La Jolla’s northern point. And then, of course, there are the sea lions and seals, which bask themselves close to downtown La Jolla. Add ice cream, a stroll along the boardwalk and dinner at night and you’ve just had the perfect ending to 3 days in San Diego itinerary."

"Torrey Pines is bordered by huge, magnificent cliffs that stretch as high as 100 yards. Popular for nature walks. Bring good walking shoes; Black’s Beach is not easy to get to."

"Located just four miles away from the Best Western Carlsbad, you will find Alga Norte Community Park. The park is 32-acres and is home to an aquatic center that has a full competition sized pool, diving boards, kids splash park and a dine-in grill restaurant. The park also has basketball courts, skate park, dog park, baseball fields and a picnic area where you can barbeque."

"Therefore, it’s possible to walk into this museum to learn about California’s mission history (the museum sits on the first European settlement site in California) for free. If you did enjoy your visit and feel compelled to donated upon exit, this is possible. (Location: Presidio Park / Old Town)"

"Within Old Town don’t miss Casa de Estudillo, which is one of the few original buildings (many are reproductions), Whaley House and Museum, which is believed to be haunted and Junípero Serra Museum, literally the place where California began. You can get more information here."

"Since it was founded more than nine decades ago, the Gemological Institute of America has been one of the world’s most prominent authorities on all things relating to diamonds, gems, precious stones, and pearls. The GIA’s headquarters is located on Armada Drive in Carlsbad. It features a popular museum chock-full of interesting exhibits and incredible works of craftsmanship."
