Carlsbad, California is a small town…a small surfing town that is just down the coast from Los Angeles, and just up the coast from San Diego. This is a great place for the populations of those two larger cities to find a bit of relaxation, without losing the Southern California vibe. Along the coast of Carlsbad, there are many activities taking place year round on the beaches, and in the waters of the Pacific Ocean. Everyday of the week you can see the surfers on their boards, all lined up and waiting for the perfect wave to catch, kind of looking like little seals sitting just off shore.
Many people find that snorkeling and skin diving in the waters just off Carlsbad, is a great way to relax and to catch some wonderful sightings of the life that lives underneath the sea. Just past the surfers, and past the breaking waves, many take out their small sail boats or kayaks and paddle up and down the coast. Further in, in the shallow waters, many kids will be seen in the warmer months, either body surfing or boogie boarding. This is truly a laid back environment, with many people either sunbathing, participating in a game of Frisbee or building sand castles. There are barbecue pits along the beach, so many people take the time to hang out, grill some shrimp and share a picnic in the calm surroundings.
There is a small boardwalk which runs along the sands of the beach, and as in many California beach towns, the joggers, the bicyclers, and the rollerbladers are a plenty. The beach hotels offer the chance of waking up in the morning and taking your tea or coffee while you watch and incredible sunrise. And at night, the sunset will provide you with not only the peaceful feelings that the sunset brings, but many opportunities for some great photographs as well. Carlsbad is truly one of the most charming beach towns in Southern California.
