As the turquoise stratosphere irradiates the colors of the Californian Coastline, watch as the undulating waves wash against the beaches, creating a perfect balance of serenity. Take to the sky for an aerial perspective over one of San Diego's most prominent surf spots.

How to get there

I took this photograph from Windanesea Beach.
Find parking right off Neptune Place on any of the side streets. There's also a small parking lot at the center of the beach; if you're lucky there will be an open spot. From there, you'll see all of Windansea Beach in front of you.
Either go to the south stretch of the beach which is typically a little less crowded, or make your way north where it's a bit rockier.
