Explore the Wonders of La Jolla Underwater Park

Getting There

• Public Transportation

  From Tijuana, head to the Tijuana International Airport (Aeropuerto Internacional de Tijuana) using a taxi or rideshare service. Once at the airport, purchase a ticket for a shuttle bus to San Diego. The shuttle service typically departs every hour, and the ride takes about 30 minutes to reach the San Diego downtown area. Upon arrival in downtown San Diego, you will need to transfer to the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) bus. Look for the bus routes that head towards La Jolla. The bus route 30 or 31 will take you to La Jolla. Get off at the stop closest to 8302 Camino Del Oro, La Jolla, CA 92037, which is the entrance to the La Jolla Underwater Park.

• Crossing the Border

  To avoid long waits at the border, consider crossing the San Ysidro Port of Entry. From Tijuana, take a taxi or rideshare to the border. After crossing, you will be in San Ysidro, California. From there, you can catch a local bus or a trolley to downtown San Diego. The Trolley Blue Line will take you to various parts of San Diego. From downtown, transfer to the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) bus to La Jolla. Buses 30 or 31 will take you directly to the area around La Jolla Underwater Park.

• Walking

  If you are near the San Ysidro Port of Entry after crossing the border, you can opt to walk to the MTS stations nearby. Follow the signs to the Trolley Station and take the Blue Line towards America Plaza. Once you reach America Plaza, walk to the nearby bus terminal and catch the bus to La Jolla. This option is more time-consuming but allows for a scenic walk through the area.
