Once again, the kids will <em>get a kick out of<\/em> this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sunset at Sunset Cliffs is very popular, so it&#8217;s suggested that you get there early to find a place to park; if not, you can always go to the nearby residential streets. Sunset Cliffs is well worth a visit if you like to watch the sun fall into the Pacific, leaving magnificent streaks of orange in the sky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/la-jolla-4423785-1920.jpg\" alt=\"United States: 4-day San Diego travel guide - la-jolla-4423785-1920\" class=\"wp-image-229342\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/la-jolla-4423785-1920.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/la-jolla-4423785-1920-450x253.jpg 450w, https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/la-jolla-4423785-1920-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/la-jolla-4423785-1920-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/la-jolla-4423785-1920-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-day-4-tijuana\">Day 4: Tijuana<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To end your stay in <strong>San Diego<\/strong> and <em>Baja,<\/em> California, on a different day, you can take a trip to Tijuana, <a href=\"https:\/\/mp-2702.milesopedia.dev\/en\/guide\/destination\/mexico-guide-riviera-maya-yucatan\/\">Mexico<\/a>.
