LJ Launch Questions

Where do you guys typically launch/park?
Can I park and sleep in my car overnight? I plan on arriving around 12 am and sleeping a few hours before launching.
Can somebody "share the location" for me and send it over text to avoid the confusion. Ill pm you my number
thanks

Lol LJ is a nickname that was given to me. I didn't even know la jolla existed till after I created my account.
I have been searching but I just find people talking about parking on the "south side" or "north side"
If somebody can send me an exact location that would be great.
I cannot drive onto the sand in my car btw

If you don't want to wheel your kayak all the way from the Parking lot, than go to the west end of Avenida de la Playa stop before going onto the sand there is 15 minute loading parking on the curve, unload the stuff and drag it onto the sand. Go park your car on the street (watch parking signs as they street sweep on every other Tuesday or Thursday), or parking lot north of launch just north of Kellogg Park (approx. 2 blocks north). Better to check out the area on Google Maps and use Satellite setting. Just reverse the process to load after you're done. There is no overnight parking except on the street and I thing the entrances to the parking lot have gates that are closed during the night. If you need to get there at midnight just look for a parking space on the street. Tight Lines

Actually, the entrance to the parking lot is locked, they leave the exit open. I have always gone thru the exit to park in the wee hours. Unlessof course they started locking it since the construction

Deamon will help you as soon as someone calls him and tells him where a good place to park is.
In the mean time....... Just don't park West of the launch.

all you guys...I just can't believe I have been called a poacher and a dick in the past week...go figure.

Hey LJ, I'll step up and help a brotha out:

  • Park your vehicle w/kayak at the Starbucks on Torrey Pines Rd. and La Jolla Shores Dr. Be there at 6am sharp!
  • Get yourself a warm coffee with all the fixins and put it on my tab (Deamon). Don't forget to tip well pal. Thank me later.
  • Get back in your vehicle and follow any one of the kayaks driving onto LJ Shores Dr. from Torrey Pines Rd.
Oh by the way...lobster season is next week. I had a buddy (who's no longer a buddy) CBAD has been eliminated from my inner circle. He's waited two years for me to show him my VERY BEST lobster spot. Well...he can go himself now. You're in if you want.

Good luck in LJ.

Suggestion for MakoRoberto: 2014/2015 North (All Sewer Locations) vs. South (Lovely San Diego) Kayak Lobster Derby...To benefit HOW...Heroes on the Water
$5 per entry? Grand Prize: Bragging Rights...winners can place a nice emblem/trophy under their avatars like Jorge does... I'm sure my good friend Saba Slayer (Promar!) will toss in a trinket or two for raffles allowing HOW to keep the cash...! Where is MakoRoberto when you need him? Hello...hello?...is this thing working?

LOL...I'll be one of a few targeting Mackerel in LJ this week...Jim
