Local Lifestyle

Solana Beach is an artist's paradise on the California coast. Take a picturesque drive north of San Diego to find a perfect slice of beach, cove, and hillside. Solana Beach centers around Fletcher's Cove, an idyllic, rocky slope transforming into an incredible hidden beach and park.

Inside the Fletcher Cove Community Center and its nearby seaside picnic tables, locals often gather to oil paint its spectacular views. When residents aren’t participating in some form of art, they can be found exploring Solana Beach, where its charming city center, pedestrian-friendly avenues, and bustling train station make on-foot commuting that much easier.

Dining, Entertainment & Shopping

Solana Beach, like many California coastal cities, centers around Highway 101, the parallel Cedros Design District, and East-West Avenue’s Lomas Santa Fe Drive. Lomas ends where the Fletcher Cove Community Park slopes majestically into the ocean. Along the way, you will find charming shopping districts and restaurants with plates so aesthetically pleasing you'll have to take a picture.

Stay in fashion with a rotating selection of the latest trends every season at Tucci's Boutique, whose stunning shop is known as the height of style in Solana Beach. For a burst of energy at breakfast, swing by Lofty Coffee’s open-air, beachside coffee shop for a slice of its popular French toast. 

For rare steak and ocean-fresh seafood cooked to perfection, discover the Rare Society. Delight in golden ceilings and Sinatra-era vibes as you indulge in some of the best steakhouse cuts you will ever taste. For a farm-to-table kitchen and taqueria, look no further than Alce 101, where the signature drinks are legendary and the vibe is incredible. 

Things to Do

There is always something marvelous to do in Solana Beach, whether you are looking for fun and adventure or a beautiful place to relax.
