Encinitas California A Groovy Place To Live!

For years people thought Encinitas was just a sleepy, beautiful surf village in northern San Diego county.  Encinitas has gorgeous beaches, Swami, D Street, Stonesteps, Grandview and Moonlight.  The laid back vibe and terrific beaches has lured many famous surfers, skateboarders and even snowboarders to call Encinitias home.  There are an amazing amount of other well known people (musicians, entertainers, sports figures and business owners) who live in this beach side enclave.  Think Malibu without the paparazzi. 

Moonlight Beach Encinitas CaliforniaIf you hang ten this is the place for you.  But, what if surfing isn't something you do regularly?  Downtown Encinitas offers so much you can't hardly believe it is as small town as it seems.  There are plenty of places to "eat, drink and be merry".  Some favorite restaurants, bistros and taverns are; Rimel's, Zenbu, Seaside Market, Chart House, Hapifish, Pizza Port, just to name a few.  Shopping is fabulous here also.  So many cute boutique's and upscale surf shops (funky ones too) you could really shop till you drop.  In the last few years Encinitas has developed a bit more of an urban lifestyle while still retaining the original charm of the lazy beach town feel.  A Whole Foods and some urban style condos are opening to lend to the urban feel.

 

There is a definite spiritual side to Encinitas too.  The Self Realization Fellowship Meditation Gardens and Hermitage dates back to 1937.  This very special, lovely landmark was built for Paramahamsa Yogananda.

Once you have visited Encinitas, Cardiff By The Sea, Leucadia you will probably want to move here or, at Encinitas Area Beach Houseleast, purchase a second home here.  There are a lot of different types of homes to choose from.  Cozy condos, some walking distance to the beach or to downtown.  Upscale communities like Encinitas Ranch are popular choices for many.  And some people come for the beach and want to buy a rare beachfront house.  Below are homes for sale in Encinitas and surrounding areas.  Many Encinitas home buyers want something very specific.  If that is you, click this link to have access to our Exclusive V.I.P.

I'm trying to figure out how to be "just a Beach Bum" too.

But, if you have to work this is a great place to do it in :)
