La Jolla Cove is a small, secluded beach below Ellen Browning Scripps Park in La Jolla, CA. The beach is a popular entry point for scuba divers and swimmers alike. The water can get a bit rough, especially in winter, so it’s always well to exercise caution. A lifeguard tower is located at the beach with lifeguards who keep watch all year round. The tower also has daily surf and tide reports.

The beach is popular in summer, when the surf is more gentle and the water warmer. Most people like to sit in the sun or wade only a short distance out. Steps lead from the sand to the rim of the park above, where people like to gather and enjoy the scenic ocean view.
La Jolla Downtown Village is just a block away, with cafes, specialty shops, art galleries, ocean view dining and luxury hotels.
