What Surfing Tastes Like. Where to eat in La Jolla after a Surf Lesson with Surf Education Academy

There is nothing better than scoring fun waves and then chowing down on amazing food immediately afterward. Here at Surf Education Academy, we take our post-surf meal seriously!! Here are our top 5 go-to meals…

Seaside Cafe: Feeling healthy and hungry? Seaside Cafe is your spot. Located on the Bird Rock main drag, Seaside Cafe offers delicious Acai Bowls and a killer Chicken Pesto Sandwich (or try it as a salad!). This sweet spot is also attached to Bird's Surf Shed and features an outdoor ocean view patio. Get there!

Cheese Shop: Sandwiches and surf sessions? Yes please!! After surfing a few waves at La Jolla Shores, you can always count on the iconic Cheese Shop to deliver up the best deli sandwich in town. Don't forget to order their world famous oatmeal cookie.

El Pescador: Featuring freshly caught fish served any way you like it. Head over to El Pescador for some tuna poke or the yellowtail burrito, and don’t forget to order a cup of their clam chowder, the best in town! Trust us, you won’t be disappointed. 

Promiscuous Fork: Feeling like a burger and fries to top off a good surf? Promiscuous Fork is the spot!! The Ring O' Fire burger is out of this world good… with a spicy kick!!

California Burrito: Literally nothing goes better together in San Diego than scoring surf and chowing down on a California Burrito. Our town has countless Mexican food spots, all of them serve their own version of the “California Burrito”, which includes carne asada and potatoes or french fries… you can find our favorites at Rigobertos, Taco Stand, Bahia Don Bravos, Don Carlos, Los Dos Pedros and Oscar’s Mexican Food.

Full stomach and full stoke. At Surf Education Academy you can get a Surf Lesson, enroll in a Surf Camp, or take a Group Surfing Class and then get your fill at our local favorites!
