No. 1 - Marsh View

The cattails near the water are growing in and filtering freshwater urban runoff. They cannot live in saltwater. This is a favorite nesting site of the Red-winged Blackbird.

ABOUT THE LAGOON

Batiquitos Lagoon is located on the coast about 30 miles north of San Diego. It is in the city of Carlsbad and just north of the city of Encinitas.

The lagoon can be seen and experienced from a nature trail on the north side. The public walking and hiking trail is about two miles long.

It starts just east of Interstate 5 at the end of Gabbiano Lane and goes most of the way to El Camino Real on the east end of the lagoon.

There are five public parking lots providing access to the trail, one by the Nature Center and four on Batiquitos Drive.
