Boasting some of the best beaches in San Diego, La Jolla's golden sands and secluded coves are a paradise for swimmers, sunbathers, kayakers and scuba divers. Home to natural kingdoms above and below the water, there’s a world of native flora and fauna in its marine parks and clifftop pine forests. Inland, students can find cultural gems, restaurants serving delicious international cuisine, open-air cafés cooled by ocean breezes, boutique shops and vast out of town malls. After lectures, take in mountain top views or get close to creatures of the deep in this amazing location.
