This is a great half-day trip for anyone who lives in San Diego. On a clear day you get great views, and in the winter you can catche the whale migration. Short hike down the east side of the point to the water. Friendly interpretive staff and nice little gift shop. It's a shame more people don't visit this place.

This is a very good place to visit. Entry is $5 per vehicle and is good for a week. Awesome view from the top of the mountains. Good to watch people surfing

This is one of my favorite places in San Diego, and I have visited quite a few times. Supposedly this is where the explorer Juan Cabrillo landed (first time for an European). First of all, the view here is great. You have pretty much a 360 degree view of things, including the Pacific ocean, the San Diego bay, Coronado Island. You can see downtown San Diego in a distance. For the history buffs, they have a light house that cool to visit as well as all the story behind Cabrillo. I think it's a nice place to just go sit and take in the ocean.
