Torrey Pines State Park

Torrey Pines State Park is a coastal state park located in the San Diego, California community of La Jolla, California.

Located off Highway 101, the Park consists of a plateau with cliffs that overlook Torrey Pines State Beach. A series of trails within the park offer attractions for hikers and beach-goers, and a small museum sits at the top. Many different kinds of wildlife and flora are found within the park, including bobcats, foxes, cacti, coastal chapparal, and the Torrey Pine.

From the cliffs or many places along the beach, it is possible to see La Jolla to the south and Del Mar to the north. At the southern end of the beach is a large rock that projects into the ocean, called Flat Rock. South of this rock can be found San Diego's unofficial nude beach, Blacks Beach.
