The Shoal La Jolla Beach San Diego

  Four Historical Landmarks in La Jolla   1.         Green Dragon Colony Site Built in the 1890’s by Irving Gill, commissioned by Anna Held Heinrich. Something special about this home is the room in the back overlooking the ocean, it was shaped like a boat and became known as “Noah’s Ark”.   2.         Mushroom House Located at Black’s Beach this home was built in 1965 by Dale Naegle. If you want to look at the mushroom house, be prepared for a 2-mile round trip hike!   4.         Salk Institute The Salk institute is an architectural marvel, acclaimed by architecture critics as one of the world's boldest structures.

At the Birch Aquarium in La Jolla they are hosting a month long event called the “Haunted Aquarium Remix”. This event starts October 1 st  and ends on October the 31 st .

  La Jolla Open Aire Farmers Market   Everyone loves a good farmers market. Farmers markets are where you can find the best and most fresh produce, buy handcrafted goods and artwork, listen to and enjoy music, try out new international food and support local small businesses. Every Sunday from 9AM-1PM a farmers market is held at 7335 Girard Ave. What’s fun about the La Jolla farmers market is that there are also arts and crafts! It’s a great time for the kids and the adults. And, even better, all market proceeds benefit the children of La Jolla Elementary School. If you are in the area, I would recommend spending a fun and adventurous Sunday morning here where you can feel good about where your money goes.  Stay with us at The Shoal La Jolla Beach www.theshoallajolla.com

  The Benefits of Ocean Water   Have you ever noticed how nice your skin feels after a day at the beach? Or how you feel so relaxed? I started to wonder why that is, so let's look into it! The ocean is very rich in minerals like potassium, iron, zinc, sodium, magnesium which all individually have great health benefits with anti-inflammatory properties. That is why ocean water is a great natural treatment for sensitive skin, such as eczema-prone skin. Swimming in cold ocean water also activates temperature receptors that are under the skin which release hormones like endorphins, cortisol and adrenaline. The release of these hormones have been linked to the release of dopamine and serotonin. So basically, ocean water makes your outside AND inside happy and healthy! After learning so much about the benefits of ocean water, I’ll definitely be visiting the ocean more! Luckily, The Shoal La Jolla Beach is just steps away from these ocean benef...
