Dolly's favorite beach! Breathtakingly beautiful secluded beach just north of La Jolla. There is no easy way to get to it, but the easiest is a steep hiking trail by Torrey Pines Gliderport - 2800 Torrey Pines Scenic Drive, 92037. The Northern part of the beach is also San Diego's 'clothing optional' beach.
