Encinitas

Known for its surf spots, stunning ocean view properties, independent shops and laid-back vibe.

Welcome to Encinitas

Encinitas is hands-down one of San Diego’s most charismatic beach towns. From eclectic Leucadia to the upscale boutiques and restaurants in revitalized downtown Encinitas, diversity is part of its charm. This seaside community is known for its beaches and surf spots, stunning ocean view properties, independent shops, and laid-back vibe. 
 
As you cruise up the coast on the famous Highway 101, you will pass Swami’s Beach, which was immortalized by the Beach Boys’ song “Surfing U.S.A.,” and is one of San Diego’s best surf spots. Further north, Moonlight Beach offers a little something for everyone - from families to sports enthusiasts.
 
Encinitas is unique among the communities in coastal North County. The city’s successful revitalization of its historic downtown left all the charm of years gone by while incorporating shops and restaurants that live up to the most discriminating, modern tastes.
 
Need a break from the beach and downtown? Spend a day connecting with nature at the San Diego Botanic Garden, adjacent to one of the city’s most beloved communities, Encinitas Ranch. Many homes in this area offer ocean views on beautiful properties, interspersed amongst walking trails and one of the area’s most popular golf courses. Whether you are enjoying beach volleyball, shopping, brunch, or a yoga class, the sense of community in Encinitas is part of the lifestyle its residents enjoy.
 
U.S. government eventually shaped what we now know as Santaluz, a community with preservation and reverence for the natural California coastal resources in mind.
 
The community prides itself on being different by design from other North County neighborhoods. It's full of colorful residents and unique houses constructed in distinctive styles that let individualism flourish. At the heart of Santaluz is the 11-acre Village Green and the Hacienda and Santaluz Clubhouse & Spa.
