What it’s like to live in Cardiff
Beach town vibes define Cardiff, where this Encinitas community offers authentic coastal character without the premium pricing of Del Mar or La Jolla. Rental options range from beach bungalows to contemporary apartments, many within walking distance to stunning Pacific views at Cardiff State Beach. The neighborhood centers around the distinctive "Cardiff Kook" statue and nearby restaurant row featuring seafood spots with ocean panoramas, though summer tourism creates seasonal parking challenges in the most popular areas.
