Picture this: You step on to the balcony of your new apartment, look skyward to see a seagull (mine mine mine). You look at the horizon and notice the sun gently kissing the ocean, which is reflecting the red and orange sunset. You get in bed, where you will gently be rocked to sleep by the sound of crashing waves. As you drift off into wonderland you say, “Ahhh this is the life. Encinitas is paradise.” When you wake up, you realize it was all a dream and you fell asleep on your keyboard. On your computer screen is www.mynewplace.com showing apartment availability and prices in Encinitas, California. You then realize you have the power to make your dream a reality.

Yum in the Sun

Now that you have rented an apartment and are on staycation, you are wondering where the best eats are. Don’t be fooled by the strip mall location of Kaito Sushi at 130-A N El Camino Real because it is a hidden gem of San Diego. With some of the best sushi around, you will be embarrassed by the number of times you end up there. Feeling like a Peruvian? El Q’ero Restaurant at 564 S Coast Hwy is the place for you…just to clarify, this restaurant sells Peruvian food, not Peruvian people so if you’re “feeling like a Peruvian” for dinner you might want to go elsewhere…or a mental hospital. On a Thursday go to E Street Café at 130 W E St for a good ole’ fashion cup-o-joe and live jazz.

Fun in the Sun

With all the sunshine, ocean breeze, and nature surrounding Encinitas, it will be difficult for you and your family to be bored. For all the nature lovers out there, check out the many acres of parks and beaches with beautiful views, and hiking trails.

Rum in the Sun

After all is said and done, you begin to wonder where you can get a drink. Encinitas, being a beach town, is full of young people, cool bars, clubs, venues, and hang out spots. Start the night off by going to Yu Me Ya Sake House at 1246 N Coast Hwy 101 for some Japanese tapas, sake bombs, and reggae music (yes, I said reggae). Go to the Encinitas Ale House at 1044 S Coast Hwy 101 for their enormous beer selection and fun atmosphere. End up at Yogi’s Beach Bar and Restaurant at 2633 S. Coast Hwy 101 and get down to the beats of the DJ on the dance floor. Don’t forget to look out the window for the incredible view of the Pacific Ocean while you get your drank on.
