Route description
S11's southern terminus is Encinitas Blvd in Encinitas. It continues northward through Encinitas, intersecting with Lecuadia Blvd/Olivenhain Rd, which becomes County Route S10 at this intersection. After this point, it enters Carlsbad, where it intersects with Palomar Airport Rd. It continues northward through Carlsbad, ending at State Route 78 in Oceanside.
This is the portion of the road that is officially designated S11. Note that El Camino Real continues for several miles beyond both termini. It extends southward through Encinitas until it reaches
San Elijo Lagoon and ends at Interstate 5. Northward in Oceanside, El Camino Real continues until State Route 76; past this point, the road ends. Originally, it actually turned around and began to go southward, parallel to its main route, but signed as Rancho del Oro Rd, ending at Vista Way just north of State Route 78 in Oceanside. However, two locked gates as part of theMission San Luis Rey de Francia make this impossible.Landmarks and points of interest
