Before you go

Best time of day
Golden hour and sunset
Getting there & parking
For a scenic drive, follow Highway 101 along the coast, which offers beautiful ocean views as you pass through the different beach towns. Alternatively, you can take the COASTER train to Solana Beach, Encinitas, Carlsbad Village, or Oceanside, allowing you to easily explore the local shops, restaurants, and beaches on foot without the hassle of driving.
What to bring
When heading out for a sunset outing, it is always a good idea to bring warm layers, as the temperature can drop quickly once the sun goes down. Packing a variety of food and drinks will keep you comfortable and refreshed throughout the evening. Additionally, if you plan to stay past dusk, be sure to pack a reliable light, such as a flashlight or headlamp, to help you safely navigate your way back to your car after dark.
