Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at La Jolla Cove
Diving Mecca! If you haven't dived La Jolla Cove, you aren't a California Diver! Nice park, nice entry, and great diving await you. The area is protected, so the marine life take pleasure in taunting you. Drop by a local dive shop and ask about the seasonal conditions. Swells and rip tides can ruin your day.
11 miles North of San Diego, take the La Jolla Parkway exit to the West. In 1.4 miles bear left on Torrey Pines Road. In 0.85 mile, turn right on Prospect Place. In 0.2 miles, bear left onto Prospect Street; in .35 miles turn right onto Jenner Street; then right onto Coast Blvd. You can't miss it.

Great diving area for beginners. We had 30-35ft of Viz. Had seals swim within 10-15ft of us. Lobster everywhere. Depth anywhere from 20-40ft. Would recommend 7mm wetsuit as water temperatures range from 65-55degrees (In October). There is a large grassy area where you can set your stuff and restrooms/showers right next to that. A downside of this dive spot is the limited parking. If you arrive in the early morning (6-7AM) then you shouldn't have a problem. Overall, its a great dive spot that I would recommend to anyone.
