The visitor center has rest room facilities, etc, and a trail guide. The trails are unshaded, so bring a hat and sunscreen. We were warned to watch for rattlesnakes- that was a little unnerving! We didn't see any, but a fellow hiker said he did. The wildflowers were coming into bloom, so it was very pretty. It was an enjoyable... more

Walking trails, ocean views, and the loveliest beach in southern California. The $8 parking fee is worth it, no driving endlessly looking for curb-side parking. The beach area has clean restrooms, outside showerheads for hosing off the sand before getting into your car. I prefer to go on a weekday, or off-season; you will find the beach area pretty empty... more

This park is beautiful. We went on a Saturday in January and had no trouble finding parking. It cost $8 for our car. We hiked up the hill and took the small trails out towards the water. The view is beautiful and the hikes are easy. I had an ACL repair and had very little trouble navigating the hikes. They... more

I really enjoyed my visit to this state reserve. I found most of the trail to be easy to moderate and the views are stunning. I spent a little bit more than two hours walking and looking around but I could have easily spent another hour there. When visiting, there were several dolphins swimming relatively close to the shore and... more

Simply put, one of the most breathtakingly beautiful places on earth. I saw one of the best sunsets of my life on a Friday afternoon in January. Would recommend to everyone, and luckily my friend lives in San Diego so I will visit again. more

I traveled all throughout San Diego last year with my husband and three children. We were everywhere, but Torrey Pines was by far the most memorable place we visited. My children were 13,9 and 5 at the time and being that we are an outdoor loving family, we were looking for a place easy enough to hike with the kids,... more

This has always been our favorite beach spots in all of SD County. Parking is close, restrooms on sight and life guards. Beautiful stretch of sand. When the kids get restless we hike up to look at the view. Pack a picnic and spend the day. more

Our family spent an afternoon at Torrey Pines but we could have been there much longer. There are quite a few trail choices and the views are breathtaking. My children also enjoyed watching the gliders take off from the cliffs. The visitor center has a lot of interesting information. It is quite dusty so bring an extra pair of shoes... more
