For the latest La Jolla Travel News…
Looking for the latest La Jolla travel news? You’ll find it at our sister site Authentic Luxury Travel . For quite a few years, I maintained both La Jolla Travel Information and Authentic Luxury Travel because I live in La Jolla, and I love helping readers make authentic travel connections.

And the winner is…
I want to thank everyone who entered the “Delicious La Jolla Foodie Getaway” on La Jolla Travel Information. I love the replies you left on the site and can hardly wait to start trying the restaurants you recommended. Even though I’ve lived in La Jolla most of my life – some of your favorites are […]
Birch Aquarium and Whale Watching
Birch Aquarium at Scripps is the public exploration center for the world-renowned Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego. Perched on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the aquarium showcases fish and invertebrates from the cold waters of the Pacific Northwest to the tropical waters of Mexico. My family and I particularly enjoy […]
Hotel La Jolla, San Diego, California
I’d like to introduce my charming new neighbor: Hotel La Jolla, a Kimpton Hotel, moved in across the street last summer, and is a wonderful addition to our area. My friends and I walk over for drinks in Hiatus, their cozy patio lounge, and dine in Cusp on the 11th floor. I’ve lived in La […]
La Jolla Festival of the Arts – June 20-21
I just realized that in my last post I included the La Jolla Festival of the Arts in the Calendar of Events, but I didn’t point out that it’s this weekend – June 20-21 from 9am to 5pm. More than 200 artists will be exhibiting their work. Live music and a food court will add […]

A Picnic Table With A View
A picnic table with a view? It seems like everyone who visits San Diego wants to enjoy a meal with a good view. Certainly several restaurants along La Jolla’s Prospect Street offer ocean views, but savvy locals know that the show-stopper vista is up at the Torrey Pines “International” Gliderport. Here, the Cliff Hanger Café (858-452-9858, open daily) […]
Prophetic Post about the Seals
I wasn’t serious when I suggested in my earlier post that the Children’s Pool had gone to the dogs, but now that’s exactly what’s happening. In a move that’s bizarre – even for the City of San Diego – officials have decided that the way to clear the Children’s Pool of its harbor seal colony is to […]
Roppongi Restaurant & Sushi Bar
“The best deal in town.” That’s how a friend described the happy hour menu at La Jolla’s Roppongi Restaurant & Sushi Bar – so of course I had to go and check it out. And sure enough, my beloved Chinese pot stickers filled with shrimp and scallops and served with Tobiko caviar sauce, normally $14.95, […]
