Enhancing Community Where Everyone Belongs!

That is the mission of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Arts, and it makes Encinitas a strong community. Our community shares a deep appreciation and love for the outdoors. This activity guide reflects that shared culture, with many programs centered around outdoor experiences. Keep the guide handy throughout the fall to discover classes, activities, special events, and opportunities to connect with your community.

This year, the Encinitas City Council has tasked the Parks and Recreation Commission with emphasizing skateboarding, surfing, and beach volleyball in our work plan. These activities are not just sports; they are integral to our local identity. Their significance is reflected in our local arts and music scenes, and we offer programs and events that help you participate, appreciate their cultural impact, and celebrate our outdoor lifestyle.

Our appreciation for the outdoors also includes enjoying and learning about the native habitats found in our parks and protected open spaces. You can immerse yourself in this environment by hiking and riding on trails through our open spaces. Take it a step further by volunteering to help maintain these areas. Start your journey by calling our office at 760-633-2740.

Have a wonderful fall season!

BIKE AND E - BIKE RESOURCES If you ride, or are considering riding an e-bike in and around Encinitas, please take the time to learn what's allowed, what the applicable laws are and follow guidelines and recommendations for riding safely. Visit www.EncinitasCA.Gov/Ebikes for information and resources on safe cycling.

COMMUNITY CYCLING BIKE/E - BIKE SAFETY & SKILLS CLASS Under the direction of a League of American Bicyclists Certified Instructor, you will learn the rules of the road and practice essential bike riding skills. Learn where to ride, best practices, emergency maneuvers, and legal rights and responsibilities. The three-hour class is broken up into three parts: lecture, skills drills, and a guided road ride to put your new skills into action! Class content applies to both regular and e-bikes.

Make sure your bike is in good working order and ready to ride. Some cycling experience is required as this is not a "learn-to-ride" class.

If under 16, parent registration and participation is strongly encouraged. For participants 12 and under, parent registration and participation required. For info and to register, visit www.EncinitasCA.gov/Ebikes.

Classes generally held 3rd and 4th Saturdays of each month from 9am-12pm. Visit www.EncinitasCA.Gov/Ebikes for dates and additional info.

RIDE SAFE – DRIVE SAFE VIDEO As a cyclist, all around the city, you’ll find different types of roadways to travel. You’re encouraged to use the type of route that is most comfortable for your experience, your speed, and your abilities. As a driver, you may be concerned about how to interact with bicycles on the roadway. In this video, we give cyclists and drivers tips to ride and drive in the right places, and ways you can communicate to comfortably share the road and to be safe. Please share this comprehensive video with your family, friends and neighbors as a start to help us all ride safe, and drive safe, together! Find the video at www.EncinitasCA.Gov/Ebikes
