Neptune Beach / Strand Beach
.jpg)
I slipped away from work in time to get a few shots in before sunset. These photos were taken in La Jolla at the beach. I'm not 100% clear if it would accurately be called Neptune Beach or Strand Beach. I'm leaning towards Neptune Beach, as I parked near the intersection of Neptune Place and Nautilus Street.
Update: According to Leslie Tarbell Donovan, this is called the "Tiki shack at Windnsea. It's famous for its sunsets and boasts a massive and powerful on- shore surf break.." It's located on the beach at the end of Bonair Street.
In any event, there's a little surf shack down on the beach, sort of like the one at 4 Mile Beach in Santa Cruz. I forget what they call it, but there's a Hawaiian name for these little surf shacks. In any event, the surf was up and there were some decent surfers there. So, maybe this is where the better surfers hang out?

Hi Rob,
great shots! I like to vacation in the San Diego area. We took the kids there last October and we all had a wonderful time. we like the noise of the ocean. It is so soothing... looks like yuo are enjoying your time there as well. What are you working on in southern California?

Gonzorip...I'm sure you're right. It was the only surf hut I saw in the area. Bonair Street sounds right. Did y'all have a name for this hut?
