Double Peak offers a short but steep hike to twin summits with 360° panoramas of the Pacific, San Diego coastline, inland valleys and distant islands—ideal for expansive landscape and sunset/sunrise shots. Trails are well-marked; parking available at the Double Peak Trailhead (limited spaces). No entry fee. Best light is sunrise for coast-to-valley backlighting and golden-hour sunsets; afternoons can be windy and hazy. Weekday mornings reduce crowds. Check marine layer and drone rules before use
