8 Things You Need to Know Before Visiting the La Jolla Cove Seals:
1. Plan your trip
Firstly, try to find out what parts of the beach are open. While La Jolla Cove is open year-round, the Children’s Pool (Cava Beach) is closed from December 15 to May 15 to protect the newly-born seal pups. You can still watch from a distance and might even see a birth! If you don’t see any seals directly on the beach at the Cove, direct your gaze towards the rock straight ahead; affectionately known by locals as “Seal Rock,” this is another favorite seal hangout. We typically see them on the rock closer to sundown, after they have gone out in search of food.
After you’ve checked out the seals, many people opt to have an outdoors picnic at Ellen Browning Scripps Park, or dine at one of the many restaurants that line the coast. If you’re more in the mood for staying outdoors, there are plenty of options including snorkeling, scuba diving, surfing, or stand up paddle boarding available at La Jolla Shores.
2. Respect, respect, respect
Both locals and tourists have a tendency to take the Cove for granted and forget its natural residents when going swimming or visiting the beach. Don’t leave trash on the beach or try to feed the seals and sea lions, as both of these activities can harm the animals. If you’re swimming in an area where seals are, keep an eye out so you’re not surprised if one shows up, and stay some distance away.

3. Keep your distance
Whether in the water or on the shore, don’t get too close or take photos with the animals, wave selfie sticks in their faces, or yell at them. Sea lions and seals deserve their space. Additionally, the group at the Cove is better socialized than most groups of seals and sea lions, but they will still bite if they feel threatened. If you have small children, keep an eye on them to prevent them from interacting with the seals.
4. Expect a smell from (very important!) poop
La Jolla Cove may naturally be a little stinky from seal and sea lion poop, but visitors adjust to the smell very quickly. However unappealing it might be to human noses, poop actually serves a vital role in the ocean ecosystem! When seals poop, the nutrients and nitrogen from their deep ocean diet are made available to feed planktons and algae that other animals eat. Without seals, these plants would not get enough nutrients and would die, along with many other species.

5. Seals or sea lions?
La Jolla Cove has both seals and sea lions — but how do you tell the difference between them? Firstly, you’re way more likely to see seals at the Children’s Pool, whereas the sea lions live next door near the cliffs at the Cove. Seals are much more quiet than the vocal sea lions and only move on land by wiggling on their bellies, whereas sea lions are able to “walk” using their flippers.
6. Don’t say goodbye
The presence of the La Jolla Cove seals and sea lions is being threatened by local litigation that sees the seal odor as hurting nearby commercial interests. If you enjoy getting to witness nature outside of a zoo, consider donating to the Seal Conservatory at sealconservatory.org or contributing your voice to this ongoing political issue.
7. Parking at La Jolla Cove
Park early in the day, or park a little further away from the Cove on Girard or Prospect and walk. La Jolla Boulevard fills up very quickly. There should be handicap parking and reliable sidewalks along La Jolla Boulevard. Depending on your disability going all the way down to the Children’s Beach, etc. may not be possible because of sandy walkways.
There is street parking (usually with a 2-hour time limit until 6pm on weekdays) along Prospect and Coast Blvd.
8. Just in case
While the beach promises fun in the sun, once in a blue moon a problem may arise. If you see a sick or injured seal or sea lion, call the Sea World Mammal Rescue at (800) 541-7325. This group is much more capable of helping than Animal Control. Likewise, if you see an animal being abused, call the San Diego Police Department at (619) 531-2000 or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Some other tips
Wear close-toed shoes if you plan on walking out on the beach or any rocky areas. It can get slippery very quickly out there, especially coming down the stairs to get to La Jolla Cove.
Wearing pants that you don’t mind getting wet is also a good idea.
Don’t forget your camera! The seals and sea lions make for a great (and very cute) photo op.
Visiting the La Jolla Cove seals and sea lions is one of the best things to do in La Jolla, and a big part of what makes our coastal community so special. Have you been to see them yet?

As one of California’s most exclusive beachfront communities, La Jolla truly lives up to the Spanish translation of its name; the jewel. Offering world class shopping, beautiful, dramatic ocean scenery, and a year round Mediterranean like climate, La Jolla draws people in from all over the world, to not only vacation, but to call La Jolla home.
With Pacific Beach to the south, and Del Mar to the north, the hilly, seaside community of La Jolla spans 7 miles of curving coastline just along the Pacific Ocean. And with La Jolla being made up of 16 different neighborhoods, including Bird Rock, the Muirlands, and La Jolla Farms, each neighborhood provides a wide range of accommodations and activities sure to meet everyone’s lifestyle. While La Jolla is known to be one of the most affluent communities in the United States, it still manages to have a down-to earth, quaint, village feel.
I think both locals and tourists alike would agree that one of the largest and most compelling attractions of La Jolla is its beautiful beaches. Windansea Beach has long been known to be a first class surf spot, with many famous surfers catching waves and flocking to this beach. For those who love snorkeling, kayaking, and scuba diving, the Cove is the perfect spot to partake in any of these outdoor activities! And if you prefer to go au natural, you can always head on over to Black’s Beach, the largest nude beach in the United States!
La Jolla’s reputation as a premier travel destination is due in large part to its quaint, yet upscale downtown, commonly known as the Village. With its casual fine dining, one-of-a kind art galleries, and first class shopping, there is something to appeal to everyone’s taste buds.
After enjoying a delicious brunch with ocean view dining at George’s at the Cove, head on over to the Children’s Pool in La Jolla, where you can see seals basking in the sunshine or watch the sun set in the evening, as it slowly disappears from beyond the ocean horizon.
In addition to beautiful beaches, La Jolla is home to some of the most distinguished and prominent institutions, such as the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, the Stephen Birch Aquarium and Museum, and the Salk Institute. Some of the finest educational systems can be found in La Jolla. In fact, La Jolla High School is not only a California Distinguished School, but is ranked as one of the top 100 high schools in the nation by Newsweek magazine. The Bishop’s School is not only known for the top-notch education students receive, but is also known throughout Southern California as a water polo powerhouse. With many top-rated schools located in La Jolla, there is no shortage of fine educational institutions to choose from.
Because of all the beautiful attractions and amenities this upscale seaside village has to offer, La Jolla is the perfect place to raise a family in, vacation, or work in! There is always something new to discover about the “Jewel of San Diego”!
