Whale View Point

Beautiful scenic overview of the ocean. Perfect for whale watching and taking pictures.

“The name “Whale View Point” was first seen on a map of La Jolla Park filed by R. J. Pennell, under the auspices of the Pacific Coast Land Bureau on March 22, 1887.  It identified a point of land located off of what is now the 400-500 block of Coast Street, now Coast Boulevard, La Jolla, California.  Today, Whale View Point is used to identify a stretch of coastline commencing at the northern boundary of 274 Coast Boulevard and extending about 1/3 of a mile to the “climbing wall” located in front of the San Diego Museum of Contemporary Art in what would be the 600 block of Coast Boulevard.  It boasts a lovely coastline grassy knoll and several acres of coastal vegetation for visitors to enjoy.  The Wedding Bowl is located at its north end (rented out by the City of San Diego today for events) and a Kumeyaay monument has been installed there also.” – https://lajollaparksbeaches.org
