Additionally, the Self Realization Fellowship’s meditation gardens offer visitors a serene escape with architectural wonders, including the iconic Golden Lotus Towers.This revamped business district along Coast Highway 101 has brought an affluent new look to the downtown quarter, where upscale dining options sit alongside yoga studios and surf shops.
 
Encinitas boasts a variety of attractions, from the renowned surf break at Swami’s to the San Elijo Lagoon Reserves, which protect the rich biodiversity of California’s coastal wetlands, to the Lux Art Institute.
 
For those considering making Encinitas their home, the real estate market offers a diverse range of options. Whether you’re drawn to the quaint beach cottages in Leucadia, contemporary coastal homes, or farmhouse-style estates with horse trails in Olivenhain, there is something to suit every lifestyle. 
 
Combined with a highly regarded school district, a rich historical background, and an authentic beach culture, Encinitas is a highly desirable and cherished place to live.
 
Local Tip: Kick off your Thanksgiving Day with the annual Turkey Trot. Set through the downtown district and along the Pacific Ocean, it is the perfect way to have a guilt free Thanksgiving celebration!
