Carlsbad California - Fun Activities

Carlsbad California is a charming, chic community on the ocean just north of California\’s most beautiful city, San Diego, in what locals call \”North County,\” a community of picturesque beach towns along the Pacific coastline.


San Diego beach communities include Cardiff By The Sea, Solana Beach, Encinitas, Leucadia and Carlsbad. Each town is blessed with it\’s own glorious ocean views and refreshing sea breezes.


Legoland is a big attraction for families visiting Carlsbad. The park is alive with color and is a very pleasant theme parks for parents – as well as the kids! The lines are short compared to Disneyland and the atmosphere is comparatively relaxed for a theme park. The landscaping is lovely and parents appreciate the healthy caf with great choices.


Carlsbad has some of the finest beaches in the world. The main beach – Carlsbad State Beach – stretches more than a mile from Tamarack Avenue to downtown Carlsbad. The beach is wide and sandy along the ocean with a sidewalk along the bluff above, perfect for sunset strolls and people watching. South Carlsbad State Beach is two miles south (the locals call it South Ponto). A state campground here is very popular with wonderful views from the bluffs overlooking the ocean.


The Flower Fields are famous for their beauty. Tour them from March to early May where for a small fee you can walk through acres and acres of brightly colored fields of flowers on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean. It\’s a sight to behold.


There are dozens of lodging choices in Carlsbad. The big chains are all represented, including Motel 6, Hilton, Days Inn, Hyatt, Holiday Inn, Marriott and Regal 8. More information about Carlsbad bed and breakfasts.


Many vacation time-share condos serve as Carlsbad resorts. Very pricey spa resorts are also in Carlsbad. The more upscale Carlsbad hotels and lodging accommodations are wonderful, albeit expensive.


A very prestigious and well-known upscale resort is La Costa Resort and Spa. The ambiance of this resort surrounds you from the moment you enter the gates. The grounds and facility are lovely and picturesque, the beauty and leisurely charm of Southern California enveloping you.


Regarded as one of the finest resorts in the world, La Costa guests enjoy a dazzling spa, a world-class golf course, informal sophistication and extraordinary service.


Of all the Carlsbad hotels the only one that is (1) cute and (2) romantic with (3) views of the ocean for (4) under $180 a night is the Inn at Moonlight Beach. More intimate than B&Bs in the Carlsbad area, the Inn At Moonlight Beach features lovely ocean views with rooms and suites starting at under $139.
