This small community in San Diego's North County Coast is considered by many to be an "Unspoiled and Unchanged reminder of the era of Hwy 101." Downtown harkens back to the quiet, unspoiled, un-crowded beach towns that existed prior to World War II. It still has the feel of earlier times and has retained its beach, art, and Hwy 101

In Greek, "Leucadia" means a sheltered place and this lovely coastal community truly lives up to its name. This tranquil area is famous for its giant Eucalyptus trees that line its main thoroughfare on Coast Highway and its casual atmosphere. Leucadia is located on Highway 101 on the north San Diego County coast.

Beaches are popular with surfers and residents alike, and everyone enjoys the dramatic views from the oceanfront bluffs. Looking out from its scenic Grandview Beach, you can clearly see the tall smoke stacks of Carlsbad to the north. As one of 5 communities within the City of Encinitas incorporated together in 1986, Leucadia retains a special character as a "Sleepy Hollow"
