Real Estate & Homes in Solana Beach - California - Solana Beach, California homes and communites Solana BeachSolana Beach BackgroundIn 1886, Charles Jones settled the region around Solana Beach, which he called Lockwood Mesa. The area's rich soil and sunny climate was ideal for growing grains and beans, and it was an agricultural site for many years.Most of Lockwood Mesa was sold in 1922 to Col. Ed Fletcher, who decided to build a residential community near the beach. But Fletcher had a problem: The bluff views were nice, but access to the beach below was difficult. With help from some clever engineers, Fletcher eventually cut a gap in the bluffs, and the community of Solana Beach was born. For more information on Solana Beach, visit coastparadise.com.
