Gorgeous views of the golf course, lots of plants and flora. Easy, flat walking surface. Free parking and admission
This is a pleasant birding site. The lagoon hosts a good variety of waterfowl and the surrounding scrub and trees have expected passerines. The trail is wide and gives good clearance for the variety of activities. The small parking lot near the northwest corner of the area is easy to access from I-5 off Poinsettia and Baquitos.
There were trails that were easy to walk and enjoy the weather. There was thick shrubs to keep people on the path. If you need to get out and get fresh air this place is a great place.
From cranes, to seagulls, to hawks flying overhead, this is the best walk in north county. You can bring your dog on the beach. Be careful, your dog may want to chase all the birds and jump in the water to catch the jumping fish!!
Start at either end and this makes a very nice three-mile round trip with no elevation change. Lots of wildlife and pretty vistas. The interpretive signs are very informative. The one major disappointment is towards the eastern end where obviously a lot of eucalyptus trees have been cut down and some scraggly things have been planted to replace them. Even if the trees were non-native, they were beautiful. One needs to remember that humans were never truly native to the western hemisphere.
A friend took me there and I promptly took my wife and dog. Very pretty with many wild flowers blooming, It meanders for a while along the Aviara golf course. Not a hard walk. Many joggers and fellow dog walkers.
you can even take your dog there (on leash if anybody is around off if its empty) nice easy walking trails without much high low terrain changes.
This is a pretty walk and you can take your leashed doggie. I recommend you start at one of the trailheads that's a bit farther from the freeway and head east. It's prettier and quieter.
Saw cars along the road parked...jogged in - a beautiful nature hike along the south edge of the lagoon. Very quiet, early morning this is a very scenic trail.
a neat walk along the water -A hidden gem of a place that we just happened to find by chance.Interesting for its overall perspective.
