Today, my three daughters went into the store, looking for a birthday present. A few minutes into shopping, they already noticed the employees watching them. They asked if they needed help multiple times, to which they declined. The three went into an aisle and looked around for a bit. They noticed one worker in the same area as them and she ended up going up to my youngest daughter. She asked my daughter to remove an item from her pocket, accusing her of taking something. The employee walked away without apologizing. My daughters were just shopping and ended up leaving. They felt very uncomfortable

I love this store! They have a ton of local artists and small businesses, so there is literally something for everyone. I have bought homemade goat milk soap and bee pollen to billabong dresses and sun hats. They also have the cutest household items. I not only buy myself all of the things, but I also buy a lot of presents for family and friends here. Do yourself a favor and check it out next time you are in Downtown Encinitas!

I love this place! If you need a gift for someone special or if you just want a cute new something for yourself, this is the spot to go! They have cute & trendy clothes, sandals, lots of gorgeous jewelry, and a ton of fun knickknacks. If you’re walking down the 101, you have to stop by Coast Highway Trading! You will find something you just can’t live without!

I am in love with this store! The location is perfect, right in the heart of Encinitas just a few blocks away from the beach. With a diverse collection of vendors you can always find what you need (or didn't even know you needed). The staff is friendly and diligent and will always make sure you're well taken care of. Coast Highway Trading is always my go to shop.

One or two cute dresses, but the prices for maxi dresses ($64) were too high for me at that quality. Staff initiated conversation three times in a 12 min visit, impolitely. A lot of Coast Hwy Traders' cheeky, sparkly gift items can be ordered online; if any item or piece of glitter art was unique to the area, I didn't see a sign or a sticker saying so.
