Kayak In La Jolla
From Redditor u/mwhite1249:
There was lots of street stuff in Ocean Beach when I lived there. Also, Bates Nut Farm is a nice excursion, especially in the fall when they do a corn maze and have pumpkins. Kayak in La Jolla; there are rents, caves to explore, and a breakwater so you're not getting smashed with waves. There's also an active archery club that maintains a nice 50+ target walking range in Balboa Park, a hidden wonder because most people don't even know it's there.

Spend Some Time On the Water
From Redditor u/buttrumpus:
My #1 recommendation is to get on a sailboat and spend some time on the water. There’s a reason the San Diego Yacht Club is in the top three for America’s Cup wins. No better way to see the city.

Visit The Happiest City In America
From Redditor u/deku12345:
If you're going from San Francisco to LA, about halfway through is a little college town called San Luis Obispo. It was voted the happiest city in America and third happiest in the world. It has fantastic food, great hikes, a beautiful, active downtown, and is really close to the beach. It has a really fun nightlife as well.
