Wildlife Walk at San Elijo Lagoon

Discover Santa Carina Trail with Naturalist Guides

Set out traversing coastal sagebrush with chaparral communities on the hills in the lagoon's south side. Underfoot are broken bits of shells, reminders of the native people who once relied upon the resources of San Elijo Lagoon. You will see the freshwater marsh below, and if lucky, you might glimpse mule deer that reside in this eastern region of the reserve. 

RSVP Recommended Ages 9+

Public walks are made possible by membership in San Elijo Lagoon Conservancy, and environmental education sponsors: SDG&E, Coastal Conservancy, California Coastal Commission Whale Tail Grant, Qualcomm, Union Bank, City of Encinitas, and County of San Diego.
