Marine Room & Leopard Shark City
This is a great place for beginner swimmers to snorkel safely and witness some of the coolest underwater residents of La Jolla. From waist-deep water, you can see rays, seals, fish, and even leopard sharks without venturing too far out. If you’re a fan of sightseeing below the waves, this is the place for you.
- Entrance is simple and easy
- Stingrays inhabit this area, take caution
- Idea for watching Leopard sharks, especially during mating season (June and October)
- The water is shallow and clear
- Sandy landscapes below the water
The waters are calm and shallow here and the sea floor is sandy, s you’ll have an easy time navigating the waters while you explore the area.
Access is an easy right at the south end of La Shores Beach in front of the Marine Room restaurant. This spot is also appropriately referred to as Leopard Shark City as it’s ideal for watching the large swarms of leopard sharks during their mating season between June and October.
