1. The Living Room Cafe
With two locations, the Living Room is a great study spot. Both locations feature cozy living room-esque furniture, you will feel at home here. The El Cajon Boulevard location is right next to campus, while the La Jolla location offers an ocean view that is worth the drive.
2. LeStat's
Also complete with couches, Lestat's is another great way to spend you Sunday study dates. The unique art and fun coffee choices, it gives a trendier vibe. On a main street, you can window shop during your much-deserved study break.
3. The SDSU Koi Pond
Right on campus, this area is a great choice for between classes. Rarely busy and complete with the relaxing flow of water, I definitely recommend trading in the library for this outdoor spot on a sunny afternoon.
4. Balboa Park
Next to the beautiful fountain, they added tables and bright umbrellas in the middle of the square. With adorable families as white noise, it reminds college students that life exists outside of our little world.
5. College-Rolando Library
This hidden library is less than two miles from campus. Most students study at the SDSU library, so during finals week it can be a great hideaway. Also, OrderUp will deliver so it can't get much better than that!
6. Communal Coffee
Also known as coffee + flowers, this cafe lives up to its name. Grab a lavender latte or Mexican mocha on your way in to enjoy while you study and flowers on your way out. With tables outside and flower arrangements, it's perfect for the typical beautiful day in San Diego.
7. Windansea Beach
One of the most quiet beaches in San Diego, it is the perfect way to get out while being productive. Grab your tanning lotion, towel, and book to hit the beach! Invite a quiet friend or two and turn it into the perfect beach day.
8. La Jolla Shores
With this many beaches, you have to study at more than just one! La Jolla Shores feature benches. Picnics and homework at the beach? Yes, please! Right above the beaches you can find tons of shops and restaurants as a reward for all of your hard work.
