1. Embrace the vibrant scenery of "Treasure" beach.

Speaking of San Diego, sunny beaches, blue sea and blue sky are the first impressions of many people. The coastline of 12km endows the city with unparalleled natural scenery and provides an ideal place for colorful water activities. With its unique seascape, La Jolla has undoubtedly become one of the most popular beach attractions in California.

The scenic La Jolla is a well-deserved "treasure land" of San Diego, where there are many luxury hotels, high-end resorts, sea-view restaurants and luxury boutiques. The galleries and exhibition halls scattered on the street add artistic flavor to La Jolla. Not only that, there are many professional surfing and kayaking shops here. Visitors may wish to experience the endless fun of water sports in their spare time.

Unlike the tranquil La Jolla Bay, La Jolla Underwater Park is a paradise for surfers and divers. The suitable environment provides an ideal habitat for countless marine life. When divers explore the wide waters, they can not only enjoy colorful fish and coral reefs at close range, but also have the opportunity to see leopard sharks. Not only that, the rugged terrain also provides adventure lovers with a good opportunity to explore caves in the sea by kayaking.

Want to experience surfing for the first time in San Diego? La Jolla Coast must be your best choice! La Jolla Beach is surrounded by the sea on three sides and backed by the cliffs of Soledad Mountain. Unique geographical location and calm and clear water are natural paradise for experiencing various water activities. Under the protection of the pier of Scripps Institute of Oceanography, the calm and open sea here is very suitable for beginners and children to learn surfing. A wide trail divides La Jolla Beach into two parts: the public lawn on one side of the trail provides an ideal place for picnics and outdoor sports, and the soft white lawn on the other side provides a natural venue for beach volleyball.

When you come to La Jolla to play with water, you can't miss two popular punch points. One is the children's swimming pool. The original purpose of swimming pool is to provide a safe swimming place for children. Over time, the original swimming pool was covered with fine sand and gradually disappeared. Now the children's swimming pool area has become an animal paradise. In summer, there are always groups of wild sea lions and seals playing here, but it has become another interesting landscape. The other is the famous seaside cave, Sunshine Jim Cave (). As one of the few coastal caves with land entrances in California, its unique landscape makes people admire the wonders of nature's creations. After visiting the beach, don't forget to visit the nearby La Jolla village. This high-end shopping center, which integrates catering, entertainment and art galleries, can meet the shopping needs of tourists of different ages.
