The little village atmosphere the place is very conducive to wandering. There are many boutiques and galleries to browse. The Cottage, with its outdoor patio is a favorite place for a leisurely brunch.
The Art Museum is full of contemporary works. Up the road near UC San Diego, is Birch Aquarium, which was pleasantly uncrowded the day I was there. It's back porch has spectacular views. There are lots of fascinating fish tanks in one section, and many interactive exhibits on the other side. Out front is a much-better-than-average cafe where you can get lunch and sit outside by the large whale fountain.
Torrey Pines State Reserve has lots of hiking trails where you can enjoy the natural beauty of the area. Nearby is the Gliderport.
