Sightseeing

Another great place to walk on the beach but be sure to check the tide chart first. You can walk down to Caroline's restaurant, sit outside for breakfast or lunch and then walk back. Watching the surfers is great entertainment while you're eating.

Drive over to the island and take a break in the sunshine. Eat outside and visit the sites. It will take you about half a day so plan to stay and enjoy everything the island has to offer.

Torrey Pines has a hang gliding port, a great hike down the cliff to the beach and a nudest beach off to the left when you get to the bottom. Wear your tennis shoes. It can be slippery but you definitely don't want to miss this hike. Be prepared to take lots of photos.

Drinks & Nightlife

Lots of shopping, great Mexican restaurants, not far from the airport so you can stop in there on your way to your flight and pick up fresh buttered tortilla's right off the grill. The people on the plane will hate you for this.

Shopping

Awesome place to buy inexpensive crystals and Chris has some amazing handcrafted jewelry and bit geodes. If you're a crystal lover you love it here. This is where I go to buy gifts. Tell Chris Shirlene said hello.
