Visiting Mt. Soledad National Veterans Memorial commemorates the sacrifices made not only by servicemembers but also by the people who have kept Mt. Soledad Memorial operating. Our volunteers and ever generous donators are another reason the memorial has continued to operate.

Mount Soledad, also known as Soledad Mountain, is a prominent landmark in the city of San Diego, California, United States. The mountaintop is the site of the Mount Soledad Cross, the subject of a 25-year controversy over the involvement of religion in government which concluded in 2016.

We hope to see you at the Veterans Memorial!

The first market was held on October 25, 1998 with 14 farmers and one artisan. The market has continued to grow and in addition to helping the children, the market has become a vibrant weekly community event and gathering place for the entire La Jolla community with over 120 vendors every Sunday, 22 years and counting….

The market would not be possible without the amazing support of the district and Friends of LJES foundation volunteers.

So thank you for supporting our market, and supporting our kids!

Love, The Children of La Jolla Elementary

Set out for marine adventure. Spanning 6,000 acres across the ocean floor in San Diego, this aquatic playground and marine life preserve is a popular destination for kayakers, snorkelers, swimmers, and scuba divers alike. Comprised of La Jolla Shores, La Jolla Canyons, Scripps Park, La Jolla Cove, and La Jolla Caves, the park is split into two sections: the Ecological Reserve and Marine Life Refuge. The Ecological Reserve zone has the most special protections, including a ban on all fishing and surfing in order to help maintain and protect the many sea creatures, sea lions, and seals that call this area home.

This is a popular beach for scuba divers because of the reefs just offshore. These same reefs can create very strong currents and other hazards, particularly in high surf conditions.

This has also become a popular viewing area for harbor seals.  Seals and occasionally seal lions haul out on the beach to rest year-round.  The Children’s Pool Beach is closed to public access during harbor seal pupping season, Dec. 15 through May 15, yearly.

This is a very picturesque beach with a panoramic view. Several small beaches are nearby including Wipeout Beach to the south and Shell Beach to the north.

Children’s Pool is one of nine beaches that has a permanent lifeguard station patrolled by San Diego Lifeguards.

Children’s pool is an excellent place to bring children to enjoy the water that is partially surrounded by the Children’s Pool seawall. This is also a perfect place to go and see the famous La Jolla seals. A rope barrier separates the seals from people coming to see them, keeping both the children and seals safe. You can still get a perfect view of the seals and take amazing pictures while watching the seals relax and play on the beach!

Tours are approximately 15-20 minutes long and self-guided. You’ll have the entire tunnel and sea cave for yourself and your party (unless you come on one of our ‘walk-in’ days)! Come prepared to both descend and climb the original 144 stairs (roughly a five-minute ascent at a gentle pace). Experience a real piece of San Diego history at the Cave Store.

To get there: Walk a few minutes north on Coast Boulevard to The Cave Store. Inside this souvenir shop awaits the entrance to the only sea cave accessible by land, Sunny Jim sea cave. It’s a sometimes-slippery walk down the staircase into the cave, so be mindful of small children. Once inside, it’s fun to hear the echo of the ocean and occasional sea lion. A small admission fee is required.

Along the way to The Cave Store, you’ll pass Clam’s Cave, another of La Jolla’s seven sea caves, which is the only sea cave in California that you can see from land. There is no need to plan a ton of time for this side adventure, maybe 30 minutes, including the walk from La Jolla Cove and it’s not necessary if you are short on time.

Attractively adorned with tall palm trees and nestled right between downtown La Jolla and the edge of the ocean, this park has been called the most photographed spot in San Diego. It is a very popular location for beach weddings and other outdoor activities.

The water is calm and ecologically protected, providing a safe home for colorful garibaldi, yellowtail, rays and even leopard sharks. Because the water is protected, surfboards, boogie boards and other floatation devices are not permitted. The beach itself is small, but nearby Scripps Park offers a nice grassy expanse for spreading out. Parking is available in nearby paid lots, with a few street spots available for the lucky.
