Things to Do in Carlsbad

Isn’t hauling luggage around the pits? Get rid of yours at your Carlsbad accommodation and then make your way to the Carlsbad Flower Fields. Each year from March to May, almost 50 acres of Giant Tecolote Ranunculus flowers are in bloom. You can take a guided wagon tour through the fields and learn everything you ever wanted to know about these particular blossoms.

After you’ve harassed the flower power, check out the Craftsmanship Museum, home to a collection spanning some 500 pieces of metal and woodwork. There are models of WWII fighter planes, a 1932 Duesenberg and other automobiles. Just wait, there’s more to get your juices flowing: see what you can whip up in the working machine shop on the premises!

Getting to & Around Carlsbad
