Docents who patrol Point La Jolla have reported repeated acts of vandalism in the area, particularly targeting signs that instruct visitors to keep their distance from the sea lions there.
The A-frame signs that warn against approaching the sea lions or taking pictures with them are routinely tethered to railings using locks approved by the city of San Diego that can be unlocked by a city employee for use when needed. However, someone has placed an extra lock on the signs that needs to be cut so they can be used.to the railings that label Point La Jolla as a “sea lion birthing area” have been ripped off and either taken or thrown into the water below.
In January, a yellow sign reading “Stay back: sea lion birthing area” was reported missing and was later found at the bottom of the Marine Protected Area during low tide. Last month, Davidoff said, she and another docent saw a new silver lock on the A-frame signs on multiple days. The docents said they contacted the ranger on duty to ask if the city had placed the lock. Upon learning it had not, law enforcement was called to cut off the lock so the docents could put the signs in view of visitors.
Point La Jolla, a rocky area between Boomer Beach and La Jolla Cove beach where sea lions go on land to rest and give birth, waslast summer, Aug. 11 to Sept. 15, on an emergency basis following months of reports of beach-goers bothering, and in a few cases harming, sea lions and their pups.
