La Jolla residences up on the cliffs bordering the shoreline; La Jolla is an affluent, hilly seaside resort community, occupying 7 miles (11 km) of curving coastline along the Pacific Ocean in Southern California within the northern city limits of San Diego. The coast line around La Jolla includes Pacific Beach, La Jolla Shores, La Jolla Cove to Black's Beach south of Torrey Pines State Park. The area also includes the San Diego-La Jolla Underwater Park which spans 6,000 acres (24 km2) of ocean bottom and tidelands off the shore. The park has become a popular destination for snorkelers and scuba divers. The park was created by the City of San Diego in 1970 and actually has two other parks within it: the Ecological Reserve and the Marine Life Refuge.
