Torrey Pines Golf Course, high above the Pacific Ocean on the towering cliffs of Torrey Pines, is a must visit for golf lovers coming to San Diego, and renowned as one of the top golf courses in California. The views across the ocean and the coastline are just incredible, so even if you aren’t a golf lover, this is just such a beautiful place to come and visit. Opened in 1957, it was built on the site of Camp Callan, a U.S. Army installation during World War II. Torrey Pines has two 18-hole courses, North and South, designed by William Francis Bell. This is a municipal golf course, owned by the city of San Diego and it is open to the public.
