If you drive way out to the Cabrillo National Monument on the tip of the peninsula that forms San Diego harbor, you can find my favorite rock on which to sit and watch the ocean from way up high. (Well, actually, there are a lot of good places to sit up there and contemplate the cool breeze and views, so you can find your own with a little walking.) Worth spending at least an hour at, not counting viewing the lighthouse and museum nearby. Best spots to sit are slightly away from those places however.
I discovered this spot quite a few years ago when I was exploring the area on a business trip, and it is one of my favorite places in the world. Can also drive down the road to the beach area for another neat place to sit and comtemplate for a while.
Some of my other favorite spots are in Scotland, if anyone ever decides to go there. Strangely enough, lots of similar sea views.
