So, if you want to enjoy local beaches at La Jolla Shores and call this place home, here’s your guide that gives you expert recommendations on the climate, best attractions, and other amenities of La Jolla. 

History

La Jolla was incorporated as a part of San Diego in 1850. However, no one permanently settled here until 1869 when two brothers, Daniel and Samuel Sizer, each bought a property in La Jolla. The plots, located between today’s La Jolla Boulevard and Fay Street, were then sold by the city of San Diego for $1.25 per acre. 

The town started to grow in 1890s when a railroad was extended to La Jolla. Real estate developers took interest in the booming suburb and constructed resort hotels to attract visitors. La Jolla Park Hotel was opened in 1893, boasting three stories and 80 rooms. However, the administration faced difficulty in maintaining the business and La Jolla Park Hotel was eventually closed in June 1896. Regardless, the jewel of San Diego continued to flourish and turned into a world-famous city soon.
