This place can get busy on weekends, but it's one of our favorite breakfast spots in San Diego. Once you order, cross the walkway and check out the "secret" seating behind the souvenir shop. Gorgeous ocean views to accompany good coffee and yummy breakfast.

Can't beat the views here. Eat lunch at the very top level for slightly more affordable fare. The bar/seating area on the second floor still gets you stunning views without the elements (great for windy or rainy days).

Parks & Nature
The beach out front of the Catamaran (bay side) is equipped with loungers and umbrellas all available to the public for free! Great for families with little ones who don't want to brave the sun or the waves on the ocean side. Get there early in summer months to snag a spot (street parking can get tough to find later in the day, too).

"Children's Pool" beach was named this after the construction of a long breakwater in the 1930's. Originally intended as a place for children to be able to enjoy the beach without the big waves, this spot instead attracted local seals and sea lions who call it home! On some days you will see hundreds of them laying on the beach and surrounding rocks. Don't get too close, though. They aren't always friendly. (La Jolla Cove is also our go-to place to see 4th of July fireworks)

Park along the road (if you're lucky to find a spot), or in the parking lot at the base of the hill for our favorite hiking spot in San Diego. The hike up the hill is moderate, and you can choose from several easy hikes once you're at the top. Our favorite is to hike all the way down to the beach - especially nice right around sunset. Just be sure to leave the parking lot before closing time!

Entertainment & Activities
Our favorite place in the city!! This place is a hit with our 5 year old, and an excellent way to beat the heat in summer. Summertime entertainment includes fun shows, and the Skyfari (suspended cable car) is a great way to overlook Balboa Park.
