Day or night, high tide or low, seals can be found about the Children's Pool. Seals frolic in the water, surf the waves, lounge on the rocks, sun on the sand. The seals swim to the beach, galumph out of the water, lie on the sand, and sleep. A seal rookery, seal pups are born here. The Children's Pool is special because the seals live here. Look out from the green gazebo, walk the gracious curving seawall. Come see the seals of La Jolla. Written and photographed by Gwendolyn Dick.
