Concerning la jolla kayak launch area - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Each city can impose their own rules for their beaches. Many popular surf beaches will have no swimming or wading rules. The same seems to be true of the LJ kayak and skiff launch. I have heard the LGs, several times, tell swimmers, skin divers and waders they need to move out of the area. Same with them telling kayakers not to launch/land North of the last rental kayak area (surfing) or South of the telephone poles (private). They also keep visitors from camping on the beach access roads. Generally they are not going to bother with most of these rules, except when the place gets busy and it can be dangerous. With the popularity of kayaking and paddle boarding, it is only going to get worse with all the competing companies putting more gear on the beaches. Better to learn to roll with the punches and educate other folks loading on the beach how and where to park and load. And go early to save yourself half the frustration.
