The Best Hidden Picnic Spot in North County!

Park in a cul-de-sac, skulk through an HOA, then you’ll find a great place to eat a picnic or take-out, overlooking Bataquistos Lagoon & the Pacific. Daylight hours only, no bikes.

Park in the cul-de-sac at the end of Bella Vista Drive.

Walk through the opening to the left of the gate.

Walk through the neighborhood, keeping left….

… until you get to the trailhead

Can’t miss it from there, enjoy the views.

It’s a bit steep if you’re with someone with balance problems

There’s a little bench to sit on. BYOT (Table).
