With its graceful lagoons, Old World architecture, tree-shaded streets and sun-splashed beaches, Carlsbad, known as "The Village by the Sea,"is one of the most picturesque coastal communities in southern California.

Carlsbad has the charm of a European village. Its many antique stores and boutiques, sidewalk cafes and romantic hotels are just a short walk from the beach.

The Village has a unique shopping district and is best viewed on foot. You can amble along the picturesque streets, browse in intriguing boutiques, dine in delightful restaurants, or explore Carlsbad's historical landmarks. Whatever your pleasure, you will find a leisurely, unhurried atmosphere with virtually everything within walking distance.

More than four miles of spacious coastline in Carlsbad offer clean, uncrowded beaches for swimming, fishing, windsurfing, and sunbathing.

Along the beach bluffs near the Village is a seawall~walkway that is popular with joggers and strollers.

On a clear day, the view from the seawall extends south to La Jolla and north past the Oceanside pier to the sweeping bluffs and mountains of Marine Corps Base, Camp Pendleton.

The beautiful lagoons are ideal for fishing, bird~watching and nature walks.

At Snug Harbor Marina in the Agua Hedionda Lagoon, equipment may be rented for jetskiing, sailboarding and waterskiing.

Carlsbad is less than a 45~minute drive from downtown San Diego via Interstate 5, and slightly longer on Highway 101. The 101 route is by far the more pleasant, with its spectacular scenery and the opportunity to enjoy the coastline that stretches for miles.
