About Us

The North Coast Current, based in Encinitas and founded in 2002, is an award-winning online news journal dedicated to covering the communities of Encinitas, plus surrounding cities Carlsbad and Solana Beach. The Current also occasionally covers news and events of broader North County interest. Oceanside-based OsideNews joined the North Coast Current in February 2022. Founded in 2013, OsideNews includes coverage of Oceanside and Vista. The North Coast Current holds the archives of the original Coast Dispatch with the purchase of the Coast Dispatch’s remnants from its last publisher in 2005. In celebration of the Coast Dispatch’s 100th anniversary in 2025, the North Coast Current will occasionally publish notes of historical interest from the archives. An effort to make the archives accessible to the public is ongoing.
