Amazing walk at Scripps Institution of Oceanography!
Please join me for a short but absolutely amazing walk.
We’re going to start at the Scripps Coastal Meander Trailhead on La Jolla Shores Drive and pass through part of the world-famous Scripps Institution of Oceanography. We’ll enjoy breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and nearby coast. We’ll pause at a spot of historical importance. We’ll encounter some beautiful artwork.
Let’s go!
UPDATE!
I walked this way again in early 2022, and noticed an “Authorized Personnel Only” sign has appeared at the narrow walkway with the amazing view in my final few photographs. Best not to go that way anymore.
By heading back east to Biological Grade road, you can resume a walk south down the marked California Coastal Trail to the foot of Scripps Pier and beyond!

There’s some parking along La Jolla Shores Drive where it winds up the hill, and there are a couple of small parking lots off El Paseo Grande at the south end of the campus. I’m not sure whether those lots are open to the public. I’ve never used them.
Lovely walk! It’s been ages since I was last over there.
The juxtaposition of the glider and building under and behind is neat!

I was surprised to see gliders overhead. It was very cool!

What’s the parking situation? It’s my understanding that there is no public parking on the campus.
