Scripps Inn is centrally located in the heart of La Jolla, just
a short walk or bike ride to beautiful La Jolla Cove and Beach,
ideal for snorkeling, diving or kayaking. If art is more your style,
travel no further than across the street to find the Museum of Contemporary
Art. Scripps Inn is also just a few short blocks up the hill to
unique shopping and award-winning dining on Prospect Street.. Other
attractions within driving distance are:
The World
Famous San Diego Zoo - 4,000 rare and endangered birds,
mammals and reptiles and 6,500 varieties of exotic plants make for
a great day adventure. Don't miss out on the special exhibits devoted
to hippos, gorillas, giant pandas and polar bears.

a 150-acre water world of marine life featuring Shamu the killer
whale and an array of hands-on exhibits, attractions and shows.
Stephen
Birch Aquarium - the public education center for the world-renowned

One of the great things about staying in La Jolla is that you can
follow a day at the beach with a night on the town without ever
getting in the car. Pack a jacket and tie, and head to the gourmet
restaurants of Prospect Street where anything from sushi to steak
to pasta is served with a breathtaking ocean view. There are also
plenty of restaurant options for the whole family, including the
famous Hard Rock Café.
