Fun Things To Do

Good thing San Diego has a ton to do! Here are some places we love visit and things we like to do in the area.

Solterra Winery & Kitchen

934 North Coast Highway 101, Encinitas, CA 92024
, (760) 230-2970

We like to drink a lot of wine - this local winery was where we went after our engagement and was a quick walk from our house in Leucadia. There are a lot of memories here and a lot of Beacon's Blend has been consumed.

The Bier Garden

641 South Coast Highway 101, Encinitas, CA 92024
, (760) 632-2437

All-American food with a fun, local vibe! We have had many-a nights here. Lavender moscow mules and Bloody Mary's are the ultimate recommendation here.

Torrey Pines State Reserve

12600 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, CA 92037
, (858) 755-2063

Nice, iconic easy hike and beautiful views.

Cardiff State Beach

Right on the 101! Enjoy the day in the sun on a nearby local beach.

Lofty Coffee Solana Beach Cafe

132 South Cedros Avenue, Solana Beach, CA 92075

Coffee, breakfast, lunch etc - great cute spot right by Carruth Wine Cellars!

Del Mar Dog Beach

Walk around the beach at Dog Beach - gorgeous views.

Fletcher Cove Beach Park

Café Topes

Best breakfast in Carlsbad!!!

Encinitas Ranch Golf Course

Annie's Canyon Trail

126 Solana Point Circle, Solana Beach, CA 92075
, (760) 436-3944

Fun 1.5 mile trail with some incredibly scenic "caves." Make sure you walk down the stairs to the right when you start, or you can take the left path for more of a scenic walk by the ocean.

Calavera Mountain Trail

Calavera Mountain Trail, Carlsbad, CA 92010

Super easy hike close by in Carlsbad - just east of where we currently live! Nice views of the city and ocean.

Cardiff Seaside Market

2087 San Elijo Avenue, Encinitas, CA 92007
, (760) 753-5445

Think if Whole Foods and Lazy Acres (local Encinitas market) had a child. A local favorite = the Cardiff Crack which is apparently tri-tip marinated in some burgundy sauce and is fabulous.

Better Buzz Coffee Encinitas

578 South Coast Highway 101, Encinitas, CA 92024

Life is better buzzed! Fave spot for avocado toast, acai bowls, speciality coffees - and super close to the beach, in downtown Encinitas!
