     If you're looking for a fun day in the San Diego or La Jolla area without spending a ton of money, it doesn't get much better than an afternoon at the Clffhanger Cafe & Torrey Pines Gliderport.  Amazing views, good eats, beach access, and beautiful scenery are all a part of a day here.

 

     The Torrey Pines Gliderport is a highly ranked paragliding school, and a spot for enthusiasts of paragliding to come and enjoy the sport with some amazing sights, or for anyone interested in learning the sport to come out & enjoy a class and/or a tandem flight.

 

     Located a couple hundred feet above the Pacific ocean, along the cliffs of La Jolla, the gliderport is also home to the Cliffhanger Cafe, a small cafe but one of the most scenic places I've ever had the pleasure of eating.  Very laid back & casual with a sandwich-centric menu, the food is fresh, sandwiches delicious, and atmosphere fun. 

 

     While eating, you can watch the gliders set sail from the cliffs and soar above the ocean, and after you're done, you can trek along the cliffs, or down the trail to Blacks beach (warning: clothing optional).  You're also only a couple minutes drive from downtown La Jolla, so the Cliffhanger is a spot you should definitely squeeze into any trip to La Jolla or the surrounding towns.

John, I used to visit La Jolla on business and remember seeing the gliders off the cliffs!  Never got close enough to visit the cafe or watch close up.  Bill

David - awesome that you had the opportunity to spend time there, it really is a cool spot. 

Bill - La Jolla is my favorite town of those I've spent time in so far in southern Cal, hope you got to enjoy it and do some exploring while you were here.

Joe - absolutely right.  If the view was all that was there I'd still spend time there.  The extra fun is just a bonus.
