Leucadia
Leucadia, which means "sheltered paradise", is located north of the Encinitas business district and south of Carlsbad. Leucadia is actually a part of Encinitas but retains its own name and character. Leucadia is mainly known for it's historic main drag, along Hwy 101, the long stretch of beaches, and green houses, which grow flowers.
While most coastal towns in San Diego County have seen redevelopment along Hwy 101 in the last 30 years, Leucadia has retained much of it's historic buildings and laid back ambience, along the same highway. Many Leucadians have fought redevelopment efforts with the proclamation, "Keep Leucadia funky".
