October 23, 20264 min read

Fall sunsets in San Diego are among the clearest of the year. Here is where to catch them.

Coastal favorites

  • Sunset Cliffs in Point Loma.
  • La Jolla's coastline and the Torrey Pines Gliderport.
  • Ocean Beach Pier.

Views from above

Mount Soledad gives a 360-degree view of the coast and city, and is a short drive from Clairemont.

Tip

Arrive 30 minutes early for parking and stay a few minutes after the sun drops — the color often peaks then.
