It is home to various museums, restaurants, and the San Diego Zoo! We spent about two hours roaming through the park, checking out the various historical sites & museums and enjoying the architecture. Gaslamp Quarter & Embarcadero This neighborhood is the lively heart of downtown. There are tons of bars, restaurants, and hotels in this area. It’s super walkable and has easy access to public transportation. The Embarcadero is a scenic waterfront area by the San Diego Bay. It’s home to marine museums, beautiful parks, and the marina. We enjoyed an afternoon stroll through these areas. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/41907b0f-172d-4c30-ab53-22e99d5b3425/IMG_6689.jpeg blog - A Weekend in San Diego: Travel Guide Pacific Beach This is a beachfront neighborhood with a lovely boardwalk for running, biking, or strolling. It’s full of coffee shops, tacos, shopping, and live music venues. This is the hub for a younger crowd. It has a great beach for surfing and sunbathing! La Jolla The famous La Jolla neighborhood is home to the Birch Aquarium, clear blue waters for diving & snorkeling, and beautiful beaches. We enjoying laying on the beach at La Jolla shores, checking out the sea caves at , and watching the baby seals at the Children’s Pool. You can check out the sea caves by booking a snorkeling or kayak tour.

We watched an amazing sunset from here and saw multiple snorkelers out in the water. I loved the peace and quiet of the ocean, the looming cliffs, and the scenic oceanside houses in this area. Point Loma & Cabrillo National Monument This was our favorite spot in San Diego. Point Loma is the furthest spot on the peninsula that stretches past the San Diego Bay. It is home to the Cabrillo National Monument, walking trails, views of the city, and tide pools. During low tide, there are amazing creatures that you can look for in the tide pools. We saw sea stars, sea urchins, crabs, and so many snails! Make sure you have a national parks pass, or are prepared to pay the $20 entrance fee to this national protected area! https://www.wanderingwithella.org/blog/welcome-to-the-adventure monthly 0.5 2026-04-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/c7f4f6cd-a78f-40d8-a085-596fcb8a67df/DSC_0990.jpeg blog - Welcome to the Adventure! I grew up on the east coast, exploring the beautiful Appalachian mountains. And this is where my love for the hiking began. After graduating college, I moved to the west coast of the USA, seeking bigger mountains, prettier coastal views, and more adventure! I spend most of my time on the coast and in the mountains of California - hiking, running, swimming, & camping. While also traveling internationally a few times a year and traveling within the states quite frequently! https://www.wanderingwithella.org/blog/category/United+States monthly 0.5 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/blog/category/California monthly 0.5 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/blog/tag/San+Diego monthly 0.5 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/blog/tag/Travel+Guide monthly 0.5 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/blog/tag/United+States monthly 0.5 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/blog/tag/Photographer monthly 0.5 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/blog/tag/California monthly 0.5 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/blog/tag/Adventure+Travel monthly 0.5 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/about daily 0.75 2026-03-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/722dfada-25b7-444a-aa52-e5df498e1f16/IMG_8628.JPG https://www.wanderingwithella.org/home-1 daily 1.0 2026-03-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/d342a9da-80e1-47bc-8511-2ecff003d744/DSC07310.jpg Home A secluded cove with a small sandy beach, surrounded by rocky cliffs with lush green trees, and a natural waterfall gently flowing into the turquoise ocean water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/90f6b0ca-32d8-47d0-9ead-88672acfcd68/DSC05707.jpg Home A foggy forest with a grassy foreground. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/fdde5177-f6e2-4cde-be2b-b2f12f2b100d/DSC04954.jpg Home A mountain landscape with cloudy sky, rocky mountain slopes, a small clear pond, and grassy terrain with rocks in the foreground. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/0840df90-647c-428a-9114-17d2ddb22223/DSC_0208.jpg Home Desert landscape with various cacti in the foreground and mountains in the background, under a partly cloudy sky. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/855ef28b-2f38-4d0a-981a-c1d2fce68829/DSC05349.jpg Home Snow-covered mountain peak with a partly cloudy sky. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/68486258-6ad9-4f1b-9559-1abc5742417e/DSC_0127.jpg Home A large, green mountain with rocky edges and patches of snow at its base, viewed against a cloudy sky. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/e647a865-e597-4c22-990f-ccc866da4f1c/DSC_0035.jpg Home Multiple otters swimming in calm water, some with heads partially submerged, in a gray overcast setting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/e7bafd51-5b75-45c6-852c-0f2b52fd1d5d/DSC_0029.jpg Home Lush green hills and mountains with scattered houses in a rural area, cloudy sky. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/7d776768-86ce-473c-8266-e513b3e54ef8/DSC04432.jpeg Home Dune in a desert with a few people at the top, under a partly cloudy sky. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/9f3f3bb5-26c2-4759-96c2-d8eb90653168/DSC_0086.jpg Home A seal in the water with its head above the surface, near a blurred shoreline with greenery. https://www.wanderingwithella.org/privacy-policy daily 0.75 2026-03-22 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/contact daily 0.75 2026-03-23 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/store daily 0.75 2026-03-22 https://www.wanderingwithella.org/store/p/cholla-cactus-garden-joshua-tree-national-park-1 monthly 0.5 2026-03-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b7082f5419c2564bfb3965/1774307792421-W4U354PXQKPHXY1OD9ZD/enhanced-matte-paper-poster-%28in%29-front-69c1c9c62c483.jpg prints -
