From Kellogg park go south a few blocks and head out from the actual launch. Go out passed the reserve line and south. What else. I check some surf web sights as well as NOAA and NWS. The swell model I like is http://cdip.ucsd.edu/
If its your first time or you're not very experienced I highly recommend getting comfortable in bays or calmer water before heading to La Jolla. And practice surf launches and landings before you actually got out with gear. Best o luck, Mike

Thank you and I'll definitely practice surf launches and landings before
