Our must visit, basically a requirement of all out-of-town guests. We dare you to take the leap if you're up for it - or just enjoy a drink while you watch the paragliders fly along the coast.
Our most Northern recommendation, the meditation gardens are a stunning location to read a book, meditate or relax. These picturesque cliffside gardens request your silence while you visit. Right around the corner is Swami's point, one of the world's famous surf breaks.
Pasta, pasta and more pasta. Get your coma here. Farmer's market on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Our favorite pocket of downtown San Diego.
Up for a hike? Guy Fleming trail, Razor Point, Glider Port to Black's beach are all easy to moderate hikes with beautiful coast views. Warning - Black's beach does not require clothing, enter at your own risk.
The hidden gem beach for locals.
Check out the famous sea lions, you'll smell them before you see them. Tons of great lunch/brunch options around La Jolla - Marisi, Birdseye Rooftop, il Giardino de Lilli, Sushi Nekosan, Queenstown Village, Puesto.
The name says what it does best, however we recommend a visit any time for a beautiful coastal view or picnic lunch location.
Local coffee and surf shop located in Birdrock. Hermosa toast and frothy coffee are a must, great smoothies, acai bowls and matcha. Grab some food and head to Windansea beach for one of our personal favorite San Diego days.
Beautfiul botanic gardens, museums, and green space in the heart of the city. Very close proximity to the Lafayette Hotel, and home to the San Diego Zoo.
