Another beautiful day in Encinitas

James G Scripps Dog Beach

I found a brick

Koi at Swami's in Encinitas


You should expect lots of shots of Swami's, Sunsets, and the 101 downtown strip. These are some of the greatest assets the Local Encinitas Community has to offer.

A beautiful sunset starting out over Swami's

I have yet to eat at the little cafe across from Swami's, I will have to try it out some time soon.

Encinitas Alleys


Encinitas, and the surrounding local areas are full of these little secret alley ways. I think it adds to the over all charm of the area and helps to distinguish Encinitas from cookie cutter suburban communities.

Moonlight beach and a bright orange sunset.

Beach House Iguana



A local easter egg, this is one of my favorite parts of living in a community with character. Finding the little oddities and curiosities that creative people willingly contribute.

I found the show of the night in Encinitas

Reggae in Encinitas anyone?

No idea who these guys are, but they are doing a great job.

High back vintage chairs

I'm not sure if my girlfriend would love these chairs, or be pissed at me for thinking she would love these chairs..? : )

The thrift store right on 101

You know the one, its right on 101 and yet impossible to get to, they have some decent stuff. Open on Sunday too.

Pigeon Hunt

This guy was taking his cat out on a leashed walk to stalk pigeons just above moonlight beach in Encinitas.

Awesome! I bet he is from Leucadia.

Anyone know what kind of lizard this is?

Beautiful spiky succulent gardens

There are little gardens everywhere you go in Encinitas.

A great looking breakfast at Honey's on 101 in Encinitas


This is a great breakfast spot. Honey's in Encinitas comes highly recommended.

We drove up to Carlsbad today chasing deals, it was worth it just for the weather!

The Encinitas sign, photo by Wonderlane


This is my favorite local community sign I have ever seen. Even compared to other signs from surrounding areas Encinitas' sign stands out!

Awesome Encinitas Succulent


I have actually started an awesome little succulent garden since I moved to Encinitas. This isn't one of mine, but I will certainly keep my eyes open for one while I am out on adventure, it is really fantastic!

Encinitas has some amazing architecture.

One of the benefits of living in such a unique local community is the beauty in what people create. I believe that is is a natural reaction to the awe and pride people feel in the natural surroundings that result in Encinitas and the surrounding areas architecture.

Can you identify the UFOs?

encinitas hot air balloon
One of my favorite sights in Encinitas, and all of the surrounding areas are the hot air balloons.
Although, if you identify them I guess they aren't ufos anymore.
Does anyone know where I can find info on taking a local balloon trip?

A little chilly for a bonfire in Encinitas?

Encinitas moonlight beach fire pit
This is a picture from moonlight beach taken about a week and a half ago.

I am really in the mood for a bonfire again, I will probably take a trip out to Encinitas' moonlight beach tonight and see if there are some warm fires going.

I made the right decision.

I recently moved to Encinitas from a snow filled NYC, and I am glad that I did. Thanks for making this such a great community.
