"What is it: Hip seafood house buzzes with blingy, Vegas-worthy interiors and expert cocktails. Why go: Boisterous Little Italy spot might not be the seafood restaurant your grandparents had in mind—shellfish platters range from Big, Bigger to Holy Shit—but groups of stylish youngins keep things humming with Mai Tais and plates of local uni, grilled octopus and buttery lobster rolls. Swing by the marquee bulb-lined bar during the weekday happy hour for $1 oysters and $7 paloma cocktails."
"Well-heeled seafood lovers abound at this Little Italy fixture, where chef Jason McLeod spins out everything from crab cakes and mussels to whole Maine lobsters straight from the tank. Whatever you do, don’t miss the raw bar, a daily-changing menu of peel-and-eat shrimp, ceviche and, of course, oysters. Opt for at least one round of the Ironside Select, an oyster exclusive to the restaurant, which McLeod grows out of Puget Sound."
"Stop by Ironside Fish & Oyster on your visit to Little Italy for mouthwatering seafood. They promote an oyster culture that is deeply ingrained in coastal communities spanning from New England to the Pacific Northwest. The restaurant is located in a 4,500 square-foot, 1920s-era warehouse which rests in the heart of Little Italy."

"Located at the Catamaran Resort Hotel and Spa in Mission Beach, this restaurant has a lot going for it: views of Mission Bay, on-point service and seafood for days. Best to kick things off with some sushi and—better yet—to go with the togarashi-seared tuna roll, with crunchy tempura shrimp, crab and spicy garlic ponzu; and the diver scallop roll, with crab, zippy green Sriracha and cucumber.

"Mitch’s Seafood created in 2008 by three families with a long history of fishing in the Point Loma area of San Diego, particularly in fresh seafood from the waters off San Diego.

Their seafood comes almost solely from the waters off San Diego and Northern Baja."

Stroll up the Embarcadero and visit the Maritime Museum of San Diego and USS Midway Museum. After gazing at ships both antique and modern, walk north to Little Italy, where you can sample more local beers at Bottlecraft before dining at one of the neighborhood’s fantastic restaurants, such as Herb & Wood."

"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."

"Los Peñasquitos (“little cliffs”) is a great beginners’ trail for those who want to enjoy mountain-feel views without having to hire an expedition crew. There are two approaches (east and west), and the trailheads offer a trek of either 6.5, or 5.5 miles, respectively. The terrain is gradual and level, but the trails are surrounded by the sort of views that gave the area its name: scenic rocky outcroppings, and stony formations that ripple with rubble."
