As one of San Diego’s oldest communities, Point Loma has an incredible heritage and culture that draws tourists. Its ideal location also appeals to visitors, providing extensive views of the skyline, Pacific Ocean, and San Diego Bay. One of the best attractions you should add to your itinerary is Old Point Loma Lighthouse. Established in the mid-19th century at 422 ft (128.63 m) above sea level, it was once the world’s tallest lighthouse. This lighthouse currently operates as a museum within Cabrillo National Monument. Moreover, if you want to reconnect with nature, you can explore the nearby Sunset Cliffs Natural Park, where you’ll get to witness some of the most rugged cliff formations and caves.
