SAN ELIJO STATE BEACH
Campground Information - Campsite Photos - Information
San Elijo State Beach Campground is one of my favorite places to camp and one of the hardest to get reservations for. It is located about an hour north of San Diego and is right on the bluff. There are great eating places and a fantastic market just across the way. (see map at bottom of page). We love to walk over to the Cardiff market and get sushi for lunch and maybe pick something from the meat counter to cook for dinner.

GENERAL INFORMATION and PHOTOS
A morning walk from the campground north up to Swami’s is great. You can climb the stairs to the parking lot as well.
San Elijo has months that the seaweed is heavy and other months with lots of rocks…. each month is a bit different!
