There are so many, and I will be listing more, however these are a few of my favorites.
This is my favorite beach spot. I come here to chill, soak in the rays, write, & get in that oh so refreshing water! After that I walk along the little bustle off Carlsbad Village for a slice of pizza, the best in town. You won鈥檛 regret this mix of family & youth all colliding in one place. Want to go out? Lots of bars & music to be found on the 101 & State Street

About 25-30 mins away, Encinitas is a beach city I worked in as a hairstylist for 10 years. On my 10th anniversary, I ran the city鈥檚 1st 1/2 marathon to go out with a bang.
You will absolutely enjoy this little/not so little gem of a city. Full of kitschy hipster vibes from dive bars to vegan Thai food, housemaids tortilla taco spots, & a bustling town on the 101 to tickle your fancies.
