10Best Says

A seasonal attraction, The Carlsbad Flower Fields provide an amazing seaside show of color between March and May of each year, showcasing the Giant Tecolote Ranunculus. It's one of the only working ranunculus farms in the world that allows the public to run through the fields, take photos, and ride on an antique tractor. Kids love exploring the maze of flowers, too. There is also a beautiful All-American Rose walk-of-fame that features 170 All-American Rose selection winners since 1940. No pets are allowed and parking is free though admission is $22 for adults and $12 for children ages 3 and under.
