Located in Northern San Diego County approximately 22 miles from the City of San Diego on the coast is the picturesque seaside city of Solana Beach.  With two miles of pristine coastline, majestic bluffs and secluded coves, it is an ideal spot to reside. 

Tucked between Encinitas and Del Mar in San Diego County, the Pacific Ocean is on the west, golf course-country club on east, lagoon regional park on north, and Del Mar Racetrack on the south. Public access to the beach is available by way of stairs from boutiques, casual restaurants, surf shops, and service businesses dot the coast highway. Some small apartment and condominium projects complete the eclectic housing mix.

The main area known as Solana Beach was originally called Lockwood Mesa and was first settled by the George Jones family in 1886. The oldest house in Solana Beach is the Steven's House, originally located on the Molly Glen Ranch in what is now Solana Beach. Their spread included the site of the Del Mar Fair Grounds and Race Track. After World War II, the community began to grow, and a sanitation district and a fire district were created.

For a 10 year period between 1950 and 1960, the community underwent tremendous growth. The Bill Jack plant (1949) introduced industry into the area and private contractors built a number of homes. Lomas Santa Fe completed their golf course and opened the sale of lots in Isla Verde in 1968. This signaled the beginning of a real estate boom which lasted well into the 80's and 90's. After a brief interval in the mid 90's, real estate sales were once again on the rise. As the community progressed additional emphasis was placed on beautification. The Solana Beach Women's Civic Club gave the town a positive identity with the renovation of the plaza and installation of the "Sun Burst Fountain". They were also instrumental in the removal of numerous billboards along Highway 101 (replacing them with trees), and installing welcome signs at City entry-points. In 1986 Solana Beach incorporated.
