^ better advice than mine! The San Elijo campground is no more than 1/2 hour from the LJ launch, 40 to mission bay, and you could still launch right there and hit the kelp beds if you dont want to drive and the surf is smallish.
Lots of good restaurants within 10 minute drive north and south, and bring bicycles if you ride them, easy way to get around that area.
hmmm....might have to make a reservation for myself
