A namesake town, Cardiff by the Sea is a beach community in the city of Encinitas, 30 minutes north of San Diego. Resting beside the Pacific Coast, Cardiff is lined with palm trees and filled with beach-inspired homes. Residents take full advantage of Cardiff’s sandy treasures, going to the beach almost every day. San Ellijo State Beach is a popular spot for snorkeling, surfing, picnics, and camping, while Cardiff Beach offers breathtaking sunsets at waterfront eateries and bars.
