We stop here every time we are in San Diego! Sunrise to sunset I love this place! Great area to walk and enjoy the beach. Clean. Always busy. Always wonderful. Watching the surfers an added bonus. Seems to be a popular location.

Beautiful spot to kayak. Caves nearby to explore on low tide. Lots of friendly helpful surfers. Julian, thanks for helping us launch over the waves!

La Jolla is my favorite beach in San Diego!! The sandstone cliffs and crystal clear- turquoise water are spectacular!! The sea lions are always fun to watch here, and the shopping and dining is amazing! Everything you could want in one section of the county for a wonderful day out. Weather is perfect also! Check out the park near the beach- plenty of room for everyone!

Can I put up a hammock and take a (daytime) nap?

Carina Carlsen | Aug 19, 2020
Geoffrey Yates | Aug 19, 2020

Not on the sand. However, there is a huge, grassy picnic area up above the boardwalk. A lot of beachgoers utilize this area for bbq's, Easy-up, etc. Assuming you have the stand alone type hammock. Not the tree tied type. Although there are some trees. Just not certain if they are close enough together for this leisure type event. Also, arriving early is key.

How much was it to park and can you stay over night

It was free to park, but I think you can only park until 10pm. You can park on the street as well.

The park needs to be completely renovated and redesigned with 2 tier parking area . Due to the growth of San Diego more parking must be added .The landscaping remove the dead trees n shrubs . Replace the ugly grey cement walk ways with cobble stone

More parking is needed for sure, but I don't know how that would be possible without destroying the neighborhood views of the beach.

Do they have beach rental ?

Everett Sena | Aug 20, 2018
Jackie Paik | Aug 20, 2018

There are shops nearby that rent gear. I know for sure kayaks and paddleboats, but I would guess surfboards and whatever else you might want too. Sometimes, people set up on the beach and either lend out surfboards (one guy does every Saturday) and maybe rent.
