"Go to this North County spot if it’s seclusion you seek as the beaches here are difficult to find. Leucadia is a small beach town that has three adjacent beaches called Grandview, Beacon's, and Stone Steps. San Diego beaches are laidback in general, but Leucadia is especially laidback even by San Diego standards with its quirky assortment of shops and eateries lining the main thoroughfare."
"It's notoriously hard to get to, involving either a treacherous climb down unstable cliffs on a trail known for accidents or a two-mile hike south from Torrey Pines State Beach (which is inaccessible at high tide). While Black Beach may be difficult to reach, the remoteness is one of the reasons that people love it. That and because it's one of the only nude beaches in San Diego County (but clothing is only optional in the north section of the beach)."
"Why go: To surf or enjoy some quiet (note that some people still go nude here). Black’s Beach is a secluded section of beach beneath the bluffs of Torrey Pines, and is officially part of Torrey Pines State Beach. Black’s Beach is perhaps most notorious for its status as San Diego’s only nude beach, though that’s no longer allowed in the more southern portion managed by the City of San Diego."
"A beautiful section of beach south of Torrey Pines and located in the northern part of La Jolla, this beach is known as a de facto nude beach. Popular with nudists and naturalists, this beach is one of the last nude beaches in the state. Do not venture to the south side of the beach unless you are prepared to see more than just marine life in its natural state."
"Whether you want to go strawberry picking, have sunflowers as a backdrop, or get an awesome pumpkin patch fall photo, the Carlsbad Strawberry Company is the place to go!. Check their website ahead of time to see what’s in bloom!"
"For four generations since 1950, Carlsbad Strawberry Company has been providing fresh and delicious produce to the community. Located along Cannon Road in Carlsbad, its lush strawberry fields add color to Interstate 5."
"There’s always something new at Crumbl with their 4 specialty flavors changing weekly, but they’ve always got the classic choc chip and sugar cookie daily. As of this writing, their specialty flavors are Snickerdoodle Cupcake, Pumpkin Choc Chip, Frozen Hot Chocolate (hello chocolate mousse with mini marshmallows and powdered sugar!) and a Biscoff Lava; which if you’ve never had a Biscoff cookie, make this the one you try first!"
"The key to a good donut is using the best toppings to dress it up. Image courtesy of Lucky Donuts House Instagram. Serving the San Diego area for over fifteen years now, Lucky Donuts House has established itself as a favorite amongst the residents there."
"With just shy of 100 seats, the New Village Arts Theater is one of Carlsbad’s most intimate musical and theatrical live performance venues. Located on State Street in the downtown area, it is staffed by local actors, stagehands, and musicians, who produce some annual performances that tend to get rave reviews. In addition to performances, the theater’s staff offer several community outreach programs and activities to foster creativity and expression in local children."
