La Jolla Shores, La Jolla
La Jolla Shores, a picturesque Southern California beach location, is a mile-long beach with calm surf that is ideal for families and children. Public facilities, outdoor showers, and a picnic area are available at La Jolla Shores. Lifeguards are on duty year-round during daylight hours to maintain beach safety. The beach is next to the 6,000-acre La Jolla Underwater Park, one of California's premier spots for snorkeling and scuba diving. This region's picture-perfect beach hamlet of La Jolla is another appeal. La Jolla, a posh neighborhood 15 miles north of San Diego (imagine Beverly Hills by the sea), is perfect for romantic vacations. Attractive stores and cutting-edge fine dining establishments abound in the tiny downtown area.
The four-star Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa offers enough of luxury for the money for those who want to stay the night. This opulent resort's nine acres of beautiful grounds are surrounded by historic Spanish buildings. The hotel features a full-service spa, an outdoor saltwater pool, and two dining options. A fitness facility, yoga sessions, and cabanas along the pool are other features.
