Surfside
Surfside is Potrero’s laid-back neighbor, a quiet beach community of longtime residents, snowbirds, and vacationers, steps from the sand.
Laid-back and local, between the action. Surfside is a residential community set just inland from Playa Potrero, a walkable grid of streets connecting homes, rentals, restaurants, cafés, shops, professional services and community organizations. A wider expanse of beach ideal for long beach walks, centrally located for the coast’s best beaches, towns and activities. The food scene runs from Italian, Indian, North American and Mexican to local Costa Rican, including two great beachfront restaurants for sunset-watching, a food-truck neighborhood around the craft brewery, and three great coffee shops. A close-knit, inclusive community, and the best spot in the area for longer-stay vacation rentals.
