A Buck and Vegetable Oil Will Get You to the Beach

Coaster Station in Encinitas, one of the shuttle stops near the heart of downtown EncinitasIt's cheap.

It's environmentally friendly.

And it runs on bio fuel converted from used vegetable oil.

And it can help with our traffic congestion on busy weekends.

It's the new Beach Shuttle running through Leucadia, Downtown Encinitas and into Cardff-by-the-Sea along the coast road/Route 101. And it will only cost you $1 (one-way), or $5 for a weekend pass.

Moonlight Beach in Encinitas, one of the shuttle stopsWherever Shuttle provides the bus - the Coast Cruiser - that covers a several mile route through these coastal towns (and yes, stopping at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas) with 11 stops, including the Coaster Station (commuter rail). The company collects used vegetable oil from a number of area restaurants, so keep eating those fries.

The new shuttle is a pilot program for 14 weeks on weekends through Labor Day (hours are 11 am until 9 pm) but my bet is it will become a full fledged service. I'll have to test it out - it stops at several of my fave places in the area - near Auggie's House of Crab and Moonlight Beach.
