Solana Beach, California Travel Guide
Solana Beach is a wonderful beach community in north San Diego County. Beautiful beaches, Cedros Design District and the red double decker bus are a few of the trademarks of this wonderful destination. There are some nice hotels within walking distance to Coaster train ride into San Diego. Also, you can arrive by rail on Amtrak. Nearby you'll find the Del Mar race track and fair grounds.

Solana Beach beaches have experienced erosion of their beloved beach frontage. Houses are perched on hilltops above the beaches that are subject to the tides. During the rise of tides, you sometimes won't have access to a beach at all as it disappears. This has been an important issue and large concern for the Solana Beach residents and their city government.

Because of the beach make-up, it's hard to say that the Solana Beach beaches are ideal for beach vacations. The surroundings and shops are fun, but for serious beaches you'll need to head north to Oceanside or south to Del Mar and La Jolla.

One of Solana Beach's unique hot spots is the Belly Up Tavern. Live acts include first class bands and some local cover bands who perform to an appreciative audience that likes to get up and dance. When you visit Belly Up, you'll feel like you've arrived in the place that's calling your name or playing your tune if rock and music with a beat is your thing. It is no surprise. Solana means sunny. And we like to call this place the sunny side of the street, taken from the lyrics of a song.
