21 Best Things to Do in San Diego, From Museum Visits to Scenic Hikes | Condé Nast Traveler

"A short 30-minute drive from downtown, I found this 1,750-acre oceanfront reserve offers sweeping Pacific views and miles of trails through pine forests and sandstone canyons centered on the rare Torrey Pine; visitors come for hiking (and the 4.5-mile Torrey Pines State Beach) year-round, the visitor center is open seven days a week, free docent-led hikes run Friday and Saturday mornings, and cars pay an admission fee of roughly $10–$25 (or free with a California State Parks Vehicle Day Use Pass) depending on lot." - Archana Ram
