About La Jolla Cove

La Jolla Cove is a very popular place during the day, as people come from around the world to the tiny beach to watch seals sleep and fart at each other, but it is, in our opinion, much better at night. For one, the smell of pelican poop has taken a damper, possibly from not baking in the sun anymore, but the best part is there are no crowds anymore. There are still floodlights on the beach so you can see the seals and this is the time the seals are more active anyway, frolicking in the waves down below.

From here you can look north over the Matlahuayl State Marine Reserve (previously known as the La Jolla Underwater Park) toward the glittering lights of the multi-million dollar mansions that line the La Jolla Shores hills while you listen to the calming waves.
