La Jolla Beaches | North of the Village

North of  La Jolla Village, tiny coves open to wide, sandy beaches and the resort-styled La Jolla Shores.

Farther north along the coast, breathtaking Torrey Pines State Park & Beach await.  These stellar beaches offer vastly different atmosphere & amenities.  In between, Black’s Beach (clothing optional) and The Gliderport lure the daring to a beach outing out of the ordinary.
