La Jolla Shores Boat Launch

+3.8 (depending on how far you want to walk along the coast)

Once you're on the walk using the Google Map directions, click "Preview" to see the direction to begin since all walks are loops. Also, below are some details to better guide you. So, when you reach...

• Shell Beach at Coast Blvd and Ocean St you can continue to walk further along the coast and then double back to Coast Blvd at Ocean St to continue the walk
• Corner of Girard Ave and Prospect St is the heart of La Jolla
• For your reference, the route from La Jolla Shores Boat Launch to the intersection of Coast Walk Trail, Coast Blvd, and Cave St and back is the same  

There are so many places to sit and eat, drink, hang out, and people watch on our walks that you’ll have to do some of your own searches to find what best suits you. However, below are some of our go-to places on this walk:

• Brick and Bell Cafe -- great sandwiches and drinks. Perfect place for a midway stop on this walk

California Plaza, 1001 B Ave, Coronado, CA 92118

3.9 miles 

Once you're on the walk using the Google Map directions, click "Preview" to see the direction to begin since all walks are loops. Also, below are some details to better guide you. So, when you reach...

• Ocean Blvd and Ocean Dr -- Google Maps directions say to walk along Ocean Blvd but it is much nicer to walk along the beach so turn left to access Coronado Beach and walk along the beach towards Hotel del Coronado
• Hotel del Coronado -- come up from the beach to the Boardwalk in front of Hotel del Coronado and grab something to eat, drink, or walk around the hotel and then continue to follow the Google Map directions heading towards Orange Ave

There are so many places to sit and eat, drink, hang out, and people watch on our walks that you’ll have to do some of your own searches to find what best suits you. However, below are some of our go-to places on this walk:

• Avenue Liquor and Wine Shoppe -- their Orange and 9th chicken sandwich is awesome

Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream, 2825 State St, Carlsbad, CA 92008

+3.0 miles (depending on how far you want to walk along the coast and/or lagoon)

Once you're on the walk using the Google Map directions, click "Preview" to see the direction to begin since all walks are loops. Also, below are some details to better guide you. So, when you reach... 

• State St and Grand Ave -- is the heart of Carlsbad Village so, either before or after your walk, be sure to walk around 
• Corner and merging of Pine Ave and Carlsbad Blvd and the main entrance for Carlsbad State Beach/Robert C. Frazee Beach -- walk south on either Carlsbad Blvd which is above the Boardwalk/beach or walk down the walkway and walk along the Boardwalk/beach
• Walk south along Carlsbad Blvd, the Boardwalk, the beach, or a combination of the three as there are access points for all three along the way towards Tamarack Ave and the dead end of the Boardwalk at the parking lot. If you're walking along the Boardwalk or beach, when you reach the parking lot head up the street towards Carlsbad Blvd and Tamarack Ave
• Carlsbad Blvd and Tamarack Ave -- cross Tamarack Ave to get onto east side of Carlsbad Blvd and continue south towards Agua Hedionda Lagoon Carlsbad Blvd Trailhead which will be off to the left shortly after crossing Tamarack Ave on Carlsbad  Blvd
• Agua Hedionda Lagoon Carlsbad Blvd Trailhead -- the trail is not a loop so walk along the lower trail which follows the lagoon as far as you like and then double back to the beginning of the trail and walk up the small trail which dead ends at Garfield St and Olive Ave

There are so many places to sit and eat, drink, hang out, and people watch on our walks that you’ll have to do some of your own searches to find what best suits you. However, below are some of our go-to places on this walk:

• Pure Taco -- the Beef Pho taco is really, really good

Brigantine Restaurant, 3263 Camino Del Mar, Del Mar, CA 92014
