It’s hard to cover our amazing town in one short video. Several important places were missed. If you’re a golfer , Carlsbad is heaven. World class golfing resorts here and world class golf companies call Carlsbad home. Our numerous public parks are astonishing and worth a video all by themselves. There are two other beautiful lagoons besides Carlsbad Lagoon, actually it’s called Agua Hedionda Lagoon. Down the 5 a couple miles is Batiquitos Lagoon which is a fabulous protected wildlife refuge with walking trails. bird watchers come from all over to visit there and it’s educational nature center , currently closed due to Covid. Carlsbad is home to The Museum Of Making Music. Closed until early 2021 but a must see if you love music and the history of music. South Carlsbad has beaches, resorts and lovely homes, camp grounds on the ocean bluffs and much more. My wife and I left the SF Bay Area (home our entire lives) for San Diego 3 years ago. We could have lived anywhere in San Diego but chose the coastal lifestyle of Carlsbad as the perfect fit for us. Vacationing or living full or part time, it’s the best!
Hi Randall, Thanks for your great detailed input! I definitely plan on doing more videos in Carlsbad especially in 2021 when the world starts to open up again. I've done a few other videos in Carlsbad covering the Windmill Food Hall and Legoland. I definitely want to show the other lagoons like Batiquitos, where my Aunt and Uncle live! It's such a great area and will be featuring it more in 2021. Thanks for commenting and have a Happy New Year!
I was born here and live in Texas now, I used to go to this beach every day, eat at grubby’s and walk the beach, I’m in Texas now but that’s my true home🤘
My wife and I are plan on visiting California for the first time. (Early May 2022) We plan on staying at the hotel right across the street from Carlsbad State Beach for a few nights. We are definitely hitting the beach and enjoying the Pacific. (We live in NJ so it's kinda a big deal for us.) Watching this video has really got me excited about the time we'll spend in Carlsbad. I really appreciate it. Thanks.
My husband and I live in California but plan to do a little getaway here for our 25th anniversary next month since we’re not doing our planned Greece cruise d/t Covid. You gave some great suggestions that we will definitely check out!! Thanks!
I was born in Oceanside at Camp Pendleton in '65 but lived and grew up on 1500 block of Tamarack Ave in Carlsbad and lived there until '74 when I moved to Missouri. Been so many times fishing on Oceanside pier and remember when a storm destroyed it.Also that was a time when me and my friends just being 6 or 7 walking alone to Tamarack beach and the lagoon across the street.I didn't hear if you mentioned him but Tony Hawk went to my school Magnolia Elementary. I think he joined Kindergarten when I left after 3rd grade Also called Carlsbad Elementary. Can't believe avocado's grew EVERYWHERE in Carlsbad and had a ton of fights with them.Want to cry seeing the price now.A Bird of Paradise field was 2 blocks from me and also Carnation farms.Ty for the great vid.Its really changed ALOT since mid 60s to mid 70s.Anybody here live there as a kid between 65-74?
So excited to see what we can expect from Carlsbad from your video! Hubby and I are spending the weekend there tomorrow for our 3rd wedding anniversary and celebrate our first baby!
I wish gas was 3.30 per gallon instead of five bucks! Staying home more & catching all these videos. Making lists of places to go. I retired to San Diego 6 years ago and haven't even scratched the surface. Thank you for your content & channel!
Thanks for the video! Was that Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort in your background? Wondering if there's enough parking for hotel guests on their property? Or do we have to park wherever we can find one? Thanks for the info.
Thanks! I wish Jaycation Tours could be a thing! For now im enjoying filming around my hometown and discovering places i usually would just drive by. 😀
I LIKE THAT VIDEO IS SUPER GREATEST TRAVEL VACATION EVER SEEN AROUND THE WORLD TO SEE OCEAN TO GREATEST VIEWS TO SEE 100 YARDS IT IS SO AWESOME AND SMART GUY I LIKE HIS VIEWS🤑🙂🤑
His poke bowls are amazing. It's cash only, and he usually sells out at about 1pm. Keep up the great vlogs, and Go Pads! (even though this week has been excruciating💔)
Thanks Jaycation! We’re here right now, did a lot of your recommendations yesterday… having a spicy roast beef from Board & Brew at the moment at the beach.
I’ve been in San Diego for 2 1/2 years. Still learning about new places in the county all the time. I live in Otay Ranch so I rarely get up to north county!! Thanks!
San Diego is sneakily big! I really recommend for people who live here or are just visiting to enjoy the different communities near the beach. Otay Ranch is on my list for late winter/early spring. Enjoy SD and hope you are staying cool in this hot weather!
I'm wearing a Carlsbad Marathon t-shirt as I'm watching this. I've been to the flower fields, and the marathon was at some mall off a freeway that runs east and west. I took the 5 to that freeway and maybe 3-5 miles east, the mall was there. It has a 24 Hour Fitness. But, I was like they said it will have views of the ocean during the race, and I was like this isn't close to any ocean! But, the route took us to the some great ocean views!
Used to hop over there all the time.The jetty from Tamarack Beach ran into the lagoon that was there.Of course that was back in the early 70s when I was like 7.
Jaycation thanks for the replay. Please if you can send me a message when ever you might head on over so I can let them know so they can have time to prepare things for you thanks again
Used to.I was born in 65 and lived on 1500 block on Tamarack Ave until 74,which of course ran right into Tamarack Beach.Used to shoot fireworks on the 4th and yes,had a TON of grunion by the hundreds of thousands with each wave.Had a blast living in Carlsbad as a kid.Moved in 74 to Missouri to a tiny farm town.What a freaking shock to a kid with that move.😂😂
Alot is definitely open! Minus concert venues, theme parks like legoland and some museums. Everything else is open with capacity rules and you have to wear a mask when entering establishments and stores. San Diego in the new years will be fun but they will limit large gatherings so im guessing it will be more relaxed around town. Where are you visiting from?
Thanks for the very informative tour of Carlsbad me and my husband are planning on moving out there in this next year can you please do a video on things to do in downtown San Diego
Wow.What years did you live there.I was born in '65 and lived on Tamarack Ave,1500 block until '74.Had an absolute blast back then.Went to Carlsbad Elementary also known as Magnolia Elementary. That was just about 3 blocks away and was a time I would walk there alone or with a friend. 2 blocks from my house was an amazing Bird of Paradise farm and also a Carnation farm.Very cool to look at.
love my city :) almost 3 years living here in Paradise. thanks for the vid, i suggest you do white balance on your vids and man quuality will be superb!!
hi jay, i'm from brazil and i really like your videos, i would like you to make a video of ocean beach / point loma, congratulations on the videos and I hope your channel grows every day!
I live in San Diego and want to spend a weekend in Carlsnaughty, Anyone know where I can stay, that doesn't charge a cleaning fee, taxes, employee 401k, medical, taxes, taxes, sand tax, sunshine tax and homeless clean up tax, like Air B and B and All Hotels and Motels in Carlsbad???? Any info would help, I'm from Michigan where we have no homeless a 4% tax and no add on charges from hotels
I'm also from MI. I moved the San Diego 5 yrs ago. I've stayed at quite a few hotels & AirBnbs throughtout the area, and all of them charge extra taxes & fees. You can't avoid it in CA.

Lived on Carlsbad Blvd right across from the beach. It was called the village of Carlsbad back then.
I know Carlsbad very well since I was a kid. Board and Brew is good. Surfing @ Tamarack is chill. Thanks for sharing parts I did not know.
Thats awesome! Carlsbad is a nice area. I plan to film around more beach towns with it being so hot right now!
So excited to see what we can expect from Carlsbad from your video! Hubby and I are spending the weekend there tomorrow for our 3rd wedding anniversary and celebrate our first baby!

@@Jaycation🍻
You should have your own tour company with branches in SoCal and Barcelona Spain. Add special tours to other european highlights.
Thanks! I wish Jaycation Tours could be a thing! For now im enjoying filming around my hometown and discovering places i usually would just drive by. 😀
I LIKE THAT VIDEO IS SUPER GREATEST TRAVEL VACATION EVER SEEN AROUND THE WORLD TO SEE OCEAN TO GREATEST VIEWS TO SEE 100 YARDS IT IS SO AWESOME AND SMART GUY I LIKE HIS VIEWS🤑🙂🤑
Great video! My favorite spot in the area is Yoshino Japanese Deli
Thanks! I think i've heard of that place. Do they have amazing sushi? I will try it sometime!
His poke bowls are amazing. It's cash only, and he usually sells out at about 1pm.
Keep up the great vlogs, and Go Pads! (even though this week has been excruciating💔)
I always just drive through there. I need to get out of the car next time, lol!
This SD series is fun! Im exploring spots i usually would just drive by as well. Ive never been to oceanside so im looking forward to that!
They got a nice go-cart place too I remember going with my school once
sounds like a fun field trip! Tons of great activities to do in Carlsbad.
Thanks Jaycation! We’re here right now, did a lot of your recommendations yesterday… having a spicy roast beef from Board & Brew at the moment at the beach.
Nice Jesse! That board n brew sounds amazing right now. Enjoy!
When in Cbad Village, try Jay's Seafood! Also Carlsbad Land & Water Co for sushi.
Loved this video, thanks Jay!! Random question - I also use Epidemic Sound. Any chance you know the name of the first track you used?
such a big help adding things to do for my vaca :)
I’ve been in San Diego for 2 1/2 years. Still learning about new places in the county all the time. I live in Otay Ranch so I rarely get up to north county!! Thanks!

Bro, please do Mission Viejo and Laguna Niguel tours. Missed my old neighborhood! Keep it coming.

The Mall was probably the Shoppes at Carlsbad... its a little bit off the freeway and has a 24 hr fitness. Must have had great views!
Hi can you do a video on live music , nightlife, bars / lounges for sd
The power plant in the background is in the process of being completely demolished right now.
Used to hop over there all the time.The jetty from Tamarack Beach ran into the lagoon that was there.Of course that was back in the early 70s when I was like 7.
A San Diego Zoo video would be great!
Thanks Ralph! A Zoo video is in the works!
DUUUUDE, HOW DID YOU MISS HANDEL'S? You were right there 6:50
If you get a chance you should try KIKO’S PLACE in Mission Valley it’s a small food truck but it’s really good. Thanks and take care man.
Thanks for the tip Cubby! I will make note of Kiko's Place for when I eventually film a Mission Valley video.
Jaycation thanks for the replay. Please if you can send me a message when ever you might head on over so I can let them know so they can have time to prepare things for you thanks again
A museum tour 👍
Such an awesome video!!
Thank you much love!
Great content
Does that beach have grunion runs?
I believe so!
They do.
Used to.I was born in 65 and lived on 1500 block on Tamarack Ave until 74,which of course ran right into Tamarack Beach.Used to shoot fireworks on the 4th and yes,had a TON of grunion by the hundreds of thousands with each wave.Had a blast living in Carlsbad as a kid.Moved in 74 to Missouri to a tiny farm town.What a freaking shock to a kid with that move.😂😂
Any hotel recommendations?
Carlsbad by the sea is a great hotel! There's also other hotels around the area that are similar to a residence inn that are nice in Carlsbad.
hyatt vista-carlsbad is nice
Nice call!
Camping above the beach on the bluffs is ideal as well. Also beach camping is good for grunion hunting when in season. Bring the family too!
I'm in Carlsbad right now
What are the rules in San Diego and around it now? We are thinking to visit it for New Year. Any suggestions? Thank you.
Alot is definitely open! Minus concert venues, theme parks like legoland and some museums. Everything else is open with capacity rules and you have to wear a mask when entering establishments and stores. San Diego in the new years will be fun but they will limit large gatherings so im guessing it will be more relaxed around town. Where are you visiting from?
KY
All kinds of nice eats there in the village and what about the best Ice Cream around at HANDEL's?!
the best part of california
Its a great area!
Just left there two days ago! Lovely city. I live in Atlanta! Can’t get used to gas prices though! Lol
Gas is crazy expensive here! Glad i have a small car! I hope you enjoyed your time here and come back! Shout out to ATL!
Bro you should do a video of Fallbrook 👍🏽✌🏽
Great vid keep it up love you daddy

Have you ever been to 🇩🇪 Germany? Just curious 🤔
35 years of living there has changed a ton and the blue building was a night club.
Wow.What years did you live there.I was born in '65 and lived on Tamarack Ave,1500 block until '74.Had an absolute blast back then.Went to Carlsbad Elementary also known as Magnolia Elementary. That was just about 3 blocks away and was a time I would walk there alone or with a friend. 2 blocks from my house was an amazing Bird of Paradise farm and also a Carnation farm.Very cool to look at.
@@mpatrickthomas graduated 99. My cousin was 95
@@mpatrickthomas than you remember baur lumber and big bear grocery store on elm
Well done video. Our home town.
you should start a tour company in San Diego ? you would make a great tour guide. you can do a great eats tour?
Thanks Alfredo! I was thinking about doing that while i was living in barcelona. San Diego might be a good idea. I appreciate it!
Yea aquarium and safari park and zoo

It's actually Karlsbad (Karlovy Vary) in the Czech Republic, not Germany, just german name for the town.
Omg! Eating at Board & Brew now! Freaking delicious! This sauce…it’s amazing! Thanks for the recommendation!!

Gas is cheaper at Costco.
Costco is definitely my go-to but i wasnt near one and was running on empty lol
Anyone who’s from Carlsbad knows about cesses
So basically you can eat in Carlsbad. Didn’t you just do places to eat in Carlsbad?
👍👍👍
Thanks!
