Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Marine Room
A lesser known dive spot just to the South of La Jolla Shores is the Marine Room, named after the adjacent restaurant. This site provides better access to the Northern reef area.
11 miles North of San Diego, take the Ardath Road exit to the West. In 1.4 miles bear left on Torrey Pines Road. In 0.3 mile, turn right on St. Louise Ter. Turn right on Spindrift Drive, and look for the Marine Room on your left.

I wasn't certified when I lived in San Diego, but this was my favorite snorkeling spot. The parking's not too abundant, but the marine life more than makes up for that. When the surf's down, it's an easy walk across the sand. Starting in just 3 feet of water, you're likely to see large stingrays (8 foot wingspans), leopard sharks, and guitarfish (skates). Garibaldi are also common around the kelp. Call the surf report before going if you want to make it worthwhile. Wetsuit necessary except for the end of summer.
