Solana Beach
Once-quiet Solana Beach is the place to stroll with a latte and look for collectibles, artwork, and contemporary fashions. The Cedros Design District, occupying four blocks south of the Amtrak station, contains shops, galleries, designers’ studios, restaurants, and a popular music venue, the Belly Up Tavern. The town is known for its excellent restaurants, but most area lodging is in adjacent Del Mar and Encinitas.
