This video has made me more homesick than ever. I spent hours at Windnsea. I worked at UTC for years and I have family that lives in Bird rock and on the cliffs above the sea caves. Beautiful video. Thank you.
I lived in San Diego for 11 years. Moved there for college when I was 18. Went to UCSD and worked at Scripps Inst of Oceanography for 4 years after college. I got scuba certified at La Jolla Shores, and spent many summers kayaking and snorkeling in La Jolla (shores, cove & in the caves). I would always bring friends there, as well as inside the cave from that tunnel that was featured. I lived in Pacific Beach and would drive over Soledad Mountain on my way to college/UCSD. I’ve lived in Los Angeles for 8 years now, and watching this video was so nostalgic. It is very well made! Thank you 😊 Ah, and loved Windnsea as well! Would always bring friends and guys I was dating there 😉 it’s like a hidden European/Mediterranean beach right in San Diego.
@@jvliansvnchez her parents probably payed for college and she probably worked at UCSD, those jobs pay well. I live here in La Jolla in a townhome and it's only $2k a month.
I can't believe I came across this video. Back in the late 70s and early 80s, I lived in La Jolla. From this video I see that it's changed a lot. I lived up by Torrey Pines (5:35), and we used to go there to watch the hang gliders and surfers. I worked at the La Jolla Light, the weekly newspaper there. My husband and I used to go to La Jolla Shores beach (3:16). Thanks for this video. It brought back lots of memories.
I helped an old lady move from Detroit to San Diego, and I moved her belongings, personally, in a uHaul, by myself. When I got to SD, I did not know what to expect. Never been to California, or anywhere in the west prior. I was gobsmacked the moment I got to SD. The beauty was beyond breathtaking. From Midwest to Far West. Then, she invited me to stay at her place in La Jolla. I said, "Sure!" I did not know it was the wealthiest city in SD, until I started noticing patterns like, LOTS of Tesla's, and residents were sharing with me the value of their homes, and I saw fancy boutiques and restaurants. It took a month for me to catch on, "This place is SWIMMING with money!" Just the ambiance, amenities, atmosphere. La Jolla is almost TOO perfect of a place to live IF...and this is a BIIIIG "IF"...you can afford it. I learned after 6 months living there, I needed a career that would allow me to continue living there, because working a normal "job" wasn't cutting it. Most workers bussed into La Jolla and left to live further away from the shore. There is a clear "Haves" and "Have Nots", situation. However, the average worker/employee were generally very happy to work in aroung the wealthy they serviced. From my experience, the wealthy of La Jolla are incredibly friendly, happy-go-lucky, generous and kind. I'd walk home from a brutal day of work landscaping, and some random guy outside his home would offer me popcorn, food and drinks. Don't know me Adam from Eve. Just smiling, snacking on popcorn, and offering me a bag lol. Another invited me to a house party he was hosting with some friends. Another guy saw me in Carls Jr. (my new favorite restaurant to this day!), and paid for my entire meal when he knew I couldn't afford to get what I wanted on the menu. I just had the best of time, and now, I'm seeing, I didn't see and explore enough! There's so much I thought I explored but didn't! Now, in 3 months, I'm heading back, with a LOT more money and time to check out all of those places I didn't see or visit. Lastly, it's funny how you left out the best nude beach lol. As a young man, I enjoyed that beach for it's "view" lol, and met a lot of beautiful, friendly women and really cool guys. Damn, I miss San Diego so much lol.
I lived in Ocean Bch and worked at the Bahia in the early 70s.....I'm now retired in Oaxaca MX. From NY originally, once I saw San Diego it was in my blood. Best part of California, I think ....😊
@@Voyagerhq just got back and had an amazing time! I do have a question for you. Where is the big La Jolla sign in the beginning of your video located at? I went up & down Prospect but couldn’t find it. Thanks!
@@blessedlife1206- Good morning, Living in La Jolla was quite different than spending the Summers there. I moved there for 3 years and decided Old Naples FL.is a much better town to live, for many reasons, especially economics ... ...Old Naples Florida🌴🎨
6:19 - "Which overlooks Blacks Beach below". Since a good chunk of that cliff just fell off in the last week, I'm not sure if that observation platform is there anymore. Great view, but in addition to the sound of the ocean you might also hear "Wauuugh!" as the ground disappears.
When I was going to UCSD in 1978-1980, I used to go snorkeling off LA Jolla Cove, swimming out to the first bouy. LA Jolla used to be so exclusive but it has turned into trinket shops and touristy traps. Used to go to the restaurants down on lower Prospect but it's just over runned now. Used to ride my bike from UCSD down to LA Jolla and ride back but now it is so co vested it's just dangerous now. Used to ride my bike north to Torrey Pines to Del Mar. Since UCSD is right off Blacks Beqch, used to go there and climbed down the cliffs to boogie board and run along the shore. I was in good shape back then so I carried my 10 speed down the cliffs on the goat trails to ride on the shoreline then climb back up carrying my 10 speed. Used to see a Cadillac rolling around with "Dr. SEUSS" on the license plate. It was Theodore Gisele, creator of Dr. SEUSS books. But too much congestion and too many people.used to go to the asalk Institute hoping to bump I to Dr. Jonas Salk. He was like God, strolling along Eden, as he discovered the polio vaccine. I think the best days have past.
I’ve lived in San Diego my whole life and it has changed so much. I’m glad I had a chance to enjoy it as the small town it was. Lots has change yet hopefully we can work to make it a nice place for our kids.
@@Voyagerhq i’ve lived in San Diego. My entire life and all of San Diego has changed not just La Jolla. I lived at the beaches in my younger days ski Beach Mission Beach Crownpoint, Blacks Beach La Jolla Shores Silver Strand. I was all over the place, even Coronado. I even went to dog Beach a few times with my pets I loved Belmont Park. In my younger days San Diego is not the same. Not just La Jolla. It’s over populated. But they still have some very new and up-and-coming communities that are not overrun yet like Eastlake Escondido and Encinitas la Jolla Shores is a very nice beach, but San Diego is a very sunny city. All the beaches here are over populated especially on holidays.
Don't mean to scare people or bring any bad news, but La Jolla could be a huge landslide into the sea from the cliffside looking towards the sea. I do hope there are checks into the stability of the land around the cliffsides and where instability is showing on the edges. Perhaps places we cannot see from above, but only underneath it all.
I moved to LJ in Sept 2021. I'm still watching these kind of videos to learn and discover all I can visit in my little town. It's overwhelming how many spots I haven't visited yet. I can't feel like a local yet, as I'm still a neophyte on the area. I.e. randomly I visited he Conrad Prebys Concert Hall one day to watch a screening of Pixar's Coco, with a music live performance by the Mexico City Folkloric Orchestra. It was beyond epic!!! Then, another day, a Marisa Monte concert in the Epstein Family Amphitheater, and again, A Fred Armisen show. It might seem like a small town, but the resources poured into it are unbelievable. There's so much going on at all times in this little town that I just can't keep up! It's like something is happening every day on every block of the town. SO many places to visit, eat, shop... I love my town SO MUCH!
I got my license when I turned 16 and we drove down to La Jolla with my parents till this day I call it The Jolla. It's a running joke that my mom and I share. I have. I photographed a Schindler place near Wind and Sea. I shot a Ken Kellogg house too. I still want to play Torrey Pines. It is one of my favorite places. It can be a little stuck in the 80's as far as architecture but I love it.
La Jolla's name has multiple possible origins: 1. Often mistaken for "the jewel" in Spanish 2. May come from Kumeyaay "mat kulaaxuuy" meaning "land of holes" 3. Possibly from Spanish "la hoya" (the hole), referring to sea caves 4. Could be a misspelling of "la joya" (the jewel) The true meaning remains uncertain, but it's now often referred to as The Jewel.
That orange glow that looks like smog is not smog. That is smoke from California wild fires. We have had some big fires in our east county rural areas and also up in the LA area which with the wind direction will sometimes settle over San Diego
DON'T see the seals up close. See them from above. If you get too close, you're breaking the law. Somehow I'm only just NOW finding out The Lot is a cinema, even after delivering food from their a few times. I always assumed it was just a restaurant.
La Jolla in Spanish does not mean the Jewel even if it's a beautiful place. La Jolla means entrance of water smaller than a bay of bahia (in Spanish) La Joya to mean the Jewel is written with a y. Not a lot of people know that. But of course if you're a San Diegan you will say it's a Jewel because it's a beautiful place.
Interesting, Many sources say it means “The Jewel” yet the definition you provide also makes a lot of sense. I’ve read the Kumeyaay called the area “Matlahuayl” meaning place of the caves and the Spanish may have adapted the word to match your description of entrance of water. Since the caves are submerged in water it would make sense. Thank you for your insight!
Cada quien puede opinar lo que sea y asi pueden estar equivocados. La Jolla, aunque es un bonito lugar significa entrada de agua, mas pequena que una bahia. Si no lo creen 'google' it.
La Joya. The Jewel 💎. It's just use the double L phonetically, instead of the Y. That's definitely Spanish language, either way. A small inlet bay, "Cayo", or a cove, "Cala". Their way and Spain's way. La Jolla.
Some one already posted it but La Jolla those not mean in jewel in Spanish. Depending on what you are referring to a jolla could also mean a small wooden boat. La Jolla Is pronounced La yoh-la hope this helps
La Jolla is far older than the 1800s. Some of our ancestors go back 30,000 years here or more. San Diego has some human artifacts going back possibly 130,000 years. Oh yeah. Do not appear to be or act like a seal. Great whites might mistake you for one. The cliff collapses at Blacks beach were fantastic, if you haven't seen them. 'Contemporary art' Can you say 'money laundering'? Jonas Salk saved untold millions of lives. A true American hero. Mt Soledad is indeed a breathtaking view. Too bad godbots had to piss on it with that execution device that ignores all of the Jews, Muslims, atheists and others who sacrificed their lives for our country in WW2.
You forgot; Smoke weed, drive around Mount Soledad, look for iconic homes with small front doors, swear you saw the midgets from The Wizard of Oz. I date myself perhaps. (Surf Blacks, and reefs as well)
You sound like the 🏄 click that I went to school with out there in the 70's I think their saying was kind of like, we don't like tourists! But I kind of forgot a lot of stuff bro.
Too bad that the street vendors have taken up much of the parking and crowded out the sidewalks so much that it's hard to visit the beach areas in La Jolla.
I disagree. You’re mistaken. It is not hard to visit beaches in La Jolla because of vendors at all. They do not occupy any significant portion of any street or parking.
@@jimas9775 he’s lying. I literally live here currently. Vendors rarely impede day to day or visiting beaches. Parking is a general problem at any popular spot in San Diego.
@@JMVideos7676 yeah that’s for the entire San Diego because in other places it is a true problem. But not much in LJ. It would be inconsistent to say “oh these laws apply to everywhere except LJ”.

Don't mean to scare people or bring any bad news, but La Jolla could be a huge landslide into the sea from the cliffside looking towards the sea.
I do hope there are checks into the stability of the land around the cliffsides and where instability is showing on the edges. Perhaps places we cannot see from above, but only underneath it all.
There was a landslide recently nearby at Torrey Pines. The rose canyon fault passes right through La Jolla too.
as someone who lives outside of the US, I’ve been dreaming to visit San Diego and La Jolla for over 13 years…let’s see when that will actually happen
What’s parts of California do you want to visit? Hopefully you’ll have a chance to visit sooner rather than later.
