This is our local beach, and we particularly enjoy it in the less-crowded off-season. There is something for everyone, including a tot lot with very welcome shade covering.

Right on the famous 101, at the south side of Encinitas is my favorite breakfast place. The menu is diverse and delicious - I love the artichoke chicken scramble, but don't overlook the Acai Bowls and Acai Pancakes. They even have a choice of over a dozen coffees. Always yummy and friendly service!

We found this beach while taking a walk in the neighborhood. They had clean public bathrooms, outdoor showers, large parking lot, rentals, long sandy beach and perfect waves for boogie boarding. Not too many surfers around but lots of families. Great fun!

Explore four miles of garden trails, enjoy restful vistas, flowering trees, majestic palms, and the nation’s largest bamboo collection. Thanks to our mild climate, plants from all over the world thrive here. Our diverse topography provides a variety of microclimates giving the visitor a sensation of going from a desert environment to a tropical rainforest, all within 37 acres.Located 30 minutes north of San Diego in Encinitas, California, San Diego Botanic Garden features numerous exhibits, including rare bamboo groves, desert gardens, a tropical rainforest, California native plants, Mediterranean climate landscapes, succulent gardens, an herb garden, firesafe landscaping, a subtropical fruit garden, and native coastal sage natural areas. In June of 2009, we opened the Hamilton Children's Garden, the largest interactive children's garden on the West Coast.
We found the volunteers to be very friendly and helpful. We loved the diversity of the geographic areas presented, including California, Australia, Central America, New Zealand, succulents, desert gardens, a subtropical fruit garden, bamboo gardens and more. The gardens are a dream set for photographers. We appreciated learning about the diverse habitats. There are a number of "exhibits" for children to enjoy. We appreciated the native plants exhibit and the natural coastal habitat, featuring ways to use native plants to protect your property against fire. For those that appreciate botanic gardens, this was a must see.

Tidal wetlands are among the most biologically diverse and abundant habilitates known to scientists. Salt, brackish and fresh water species of fishes and mollusks, and crustaceans depend upon the in and out flux of fresh and salt water microbiota (food). Further, the mud banks along the water coarseways provide unique intertidal caverns and mud holes occupied by species rarely seen by the casual observer. Marshland and waterways attract thousands of bird species, many of whom hunt for fish and crustaceans as they fly north in the summer and south in the winter. The eco center describes the varied biomes within the region and help visitors identify the species found there. Currently the lagoon is suffering near disaster as expansion of the I-5 corridor has given permission to ransack the backwater lagoon, plowing under innumerable “mini” species to provide larger, more open waterways and fewer mudflats to avoid seasonal blockage of flow. The years of “improvements” will take decades to repopulate the microbiome required to reinstate the subtle balance of life and nutrients provided for the biology (like osprey, clapperrails and numerous other wonderful creatures which visitors can see. Well worth the donation to visit.
