Buena Vista Lagoon
Buena Vista lagoon lies within the cities of Carlsbad and Oceanside in northern San Diego County. The 223-acre wetland habitat is fed by 19 square miles of watershed. The California Department of Fish and Game owns the vast majority (198 acres); the remainder is privately owned. The lagoon has a small network of trails on the north end.
Buena Vista Lagoon Nature Center
Built, owned, operated, and staffed by members and volunteers of the Buena Vista Audubon Society chapter, the Buena Vista Audubon Nature Center is located next to the Buena Vista lagoon, alongside Coast Highway 101 in Oceanside, California.
The Buena Vista Lagoon, a State Ecological Reserve managed by California Department of Fish and Game since 1968, continues to welcome numerous migratory waterfowl and shorebirds each year. Over 200 species of birds have been recorded on and around the lagoon.
