Getting around in La Jolla is mostly done by foot, bike, or car. Most travelers fly into Lindbergh Field, San Diego’s international airport, and hire a taxi/rideshare to La Jolla.
There are many sightseeing options if you are staying longer in the area!
Even if you don’t make it to San Diego, La Jolla has beautiful beaches, outdoor activities, art and cultural events, fine dining and shopping. Call (619) 221-8899 City of San Diego Beach Wheelchair Line to inquire about free manual beach wheelchairs available at lifeguard towers.
