Weather<\/h2>\n

Like the rest of San Diego, La Jolla<\/strong> benefits from a mild, Mediterranean climate that is sunny and temperate throughout the year. The average high temperature stays between the mid-60s and mid-70s, with August beeing the warmest month the degrees can reach up to 90. However, we are located close to the beach and we have a cool breeze, a sweater might be required for cool nights.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dress Attire<\/h2>\n

The summer institute attire is very casual – please dress comfortably, summer\/beach attire. Shorts, T-shirts and flip flops are welcome.<\/p>\n
