Getting There in La Jolla

Getting to La Jolla

La Jolla's three main zones — The Village, La Jolla Shores, and Torrey Pines — look compact on a map but moving between them usually requires a car or rideshare due to hilly terrain. Within The Village itself, walkability scores above 90 and most sights are on foot. MTS Route 30 connects Old Town Trolley through Pacific Beach to La Jolla Village and La Jolla Shores, running every 15–30 minutes on weekdays. The one-way fare is about $2.50 and a day pass around $6 via the PRONTO card or app — a budget-friendly option if you're staying in The Village.
