Very few new homes have

several small residential projects were recently
completed. Local residents and tourists have fun shopping

Belly Up Tavern, a well-known nightclub, is famous
throughout the county for great live music and dancing.

pastries, and light vegetarian fare. Several boutique
furniture stores offer unique imported and hand-crafted
furniture and home designer items.

SOLANA BEACH PEOPLE:
Executives,
professionals, and artists are drawn to the
small-town, casual nature of Solana Beach. Most of
the people who live here are long-time residents and
there is a very low turnover rate of single-family
homes.

The City of Solana
Beach encompasses 1.7 miles of beach front bordered on the
north by Cardiff State Beach, and on the south by the City
of Del Mar. The beach front is divided into four main
Beach Parks: Fletcher Cove, Tide Beach Park, Seascape
Surf, and Del Mar Shores. These beaches provide a wide
variety of recreational activities for City residents and
visitors. Below is a description of each beach park
located in the City of Solana Beach.
Solana Beach is a
small, upscale community tucked along the Pacific
Ocean in between Del Mar and Cardiff. Incorporated
in 1986, Solana Beach is right next door to a
beautiful natural lagoon to the north and the
spectacular scenery of Rancho Santa Fe and San
Dieguito County Park to the east of the city. A
quiet, relaxed atmosphere, Solana Beach is mostly a
residential community. Highly-rated schools and very
safe neighborhoods make it ideal for a family type
atmosphere. Several recently expanded and updated
retail centers offer a great variety stores along
with a few small office buildings are sprinkled
along the main arterials.

SOLANA
BEACH COMMUNITY:
Like the other
coastal communities of North San Diego County, I-5
divides Solana Beach into distinct neighborhoods.
West of I-5, you will find a friendly beach
environment with older homes dotting the hillsides,
canyons, and ocean bluffs. Many of the large, gated
condominiums on S. Sierra Avenue are second homes
and seasonal rentals. Expensive custom homes located
on the bluffs and high in the hills offer expansive
views of the Pacific Ocean. More of a country club
atmosphere with rolling hills exists east of I-5,
with newer executive homes on large lots and some
condominiums. Private golf and tennis facilities are
available as well as public.
