La Jolla is the area of San Diego that people think of once they move away from the lights of Little Italy and the beaches of Mission Bay. The mix of ocean cliffs and sandy beach coves make this area a water sport dream. Whether you enjoy kayaking, open water swimming, surfing, snorkeling, or scuba diving you can find it here.

Stay:

La Jolla Cove Hotel & Suites

It has been awhile since I have stayed here, but when I did it was a great experience. The views are better than La Jolla Cove and there are plenty of good restaurants and shopping in walking distance.

Eats:

The Marine Room

Check their dates for High Tide Brunch or High Tide Dinner. They offer their amazing menu and drinks on other nights as well, but when they know they will have a high tide that will splash and crash spectacularly on their large reinforced windows they host a special meal.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I am a Southern California native, mother of two, military spouse and travel lover currently located in Naples, Italy. I’ve lived and visited many different places and I hope that my travels will help you plan your next great adventure! My guides focus on travel that the whole family can enjoy and feature some of the great places the military has sent us, as well as our own travels. Having lived in many different places, I have local knowledge of a wide variety of places. Two of my favorite recent travels are a month long family trip to Australia and Singapore and a multi-generational Caribbean cruise. I love that some of my kids first core memories will be of our international travels. It is so heart warming to watch them make friends at a foreign playground and having an interaction with a person that doesn’t speak their same language. Now, living in Italy we have many more opportunities for travel, both throughout Europe and locally near Naples, Pompeii, and the Amalfi Coast. We have enjoyed discovering new foods, exploring language and culture. My youngest has an egg allergy that we manage so food and language intertwine often.
