My family scheduled a kayak tour of La Jolla caves, and it was a wonderful experience. We saw sea lions close up, and enjoyed the peaceful feeling of being on the water.

It seems there’s a surf or kayak shop on every corner… for good reason, because the beaches are fantastic. One surprise for me, though, was wading into the surf and having stingrays swim right up to me. I also didn’t expect to see so many jellyfish. (That’s a midwesterner for you.) ;)

One reason we love it is because of all the positive things they do for animals. Sea World does a lot of rehabilitation and research.

The San Diego park is clean, easy to get to, and filled with fun things to do and see. Get a behind-the-scenes tour and go back for a second day… it’s only a few dollars more. Well worth the money!

...but there are many more worthwhile places to visit.
