La Jolla Windansea Beachhouse & Cottage

Windansea beach is a beautiful beach still well-known mostly to locals. The north or south ends of Windansea are best for young children. Just in front of 'the shack' you'll generally find the best surf breaks. The tidepools at the north and south ends are brimming with life to explore at low tide.

The village of La Jolla is just a mile north of our home. It is a lovely 15-minute walk through a historic, established neighborhood or along the beach (at low tide). The village has numerous restaurants and shops of all kinds. The village also has a beautiful coastal park that has free concerts on Sundays in summer. Seeing the seals at the Children's pool and snorkeling or swimming the cove are favorite activities. The Museum of Contemporary art offers special programs and movies, and the La Jolla playhouse showcases both new and Broadway theatre.

San Diego has so many attractions to offer tourists. The city is made up of many smaller villages which are all wonderful to visit. Coronado island, downtown, Seaport Village, Old Town, Point Loma, Mission and Pacific Beaches all have their own offerings and personality - as do the beach cities to the north. Families will enjoy Sea World, Legoland, The Wild Animal Park, The Zoo and the Knotts waterpark. Downtown theatre and music venues offer a huge variety of shows. The racetrack at Del Mar is a draw in summer.

The world-famous Torrey Pines golf course is less than 15 minutes north. Call ahead to reserve tee times.
