New Year's Day Labyrinth in Encinitas

Leucadian resident and environmental artist, Kirkos, will be drawing his annual labyrinth on the sands just north of Moonlight Beach on New Year's Day. The event is scheduled from 10am to 5pm and is a great relaxing and free thing to do in Encinitas. Bring your family and your out of town guests to witness and join in this yearly meditational walk around the labyrinth.

Visitors are asked to park at Moonlight Beach and walk approximately a mile north to the labyrinth. Guests are invited to bring biodegradable "offerings" such as rocks, rock salt, flowers, etc to the labyrinth. Please do not bring anything that needs to be picked up!

Kirkos is a long time member of the San Dieguito Art Guild in Encinitas and is dedicating this year's labyrinth to the Guild.

Please see http://www.kirkos.net/ to view some of Kirkos sand art in the past and read a little about the artist.

Hi, Debbie,

I'm a local here and went to see the labyrinth on New Year's, too! We are so spoiled here to be able to be out walking on a beautiful beach on a beautiful warm day in January! But, I must have gone to the wrong labyrinth -- the one I saw didn't have any colors. I wonder if the colors fade into the sand by the time us late-walkers get there...??

Hi Diana,

I believe it was just colored salt so it may have been washed out by the time you arrived? It was a fun thing to go see on such a gorgeous January day!
