About by the Sea Recovery

Structured Men’s Sober Living in Carlsbad Serving All of San Diego County

By the Sea Recovery is a premier men’s sober living home located in the coastal community of Carlsbad, California, serving residents throughout San Diego County. Just minutes from the ocean and surrounded by North County’s beaches, trails, and outdoor spaces, our home offers a calm, restorative environment designed to support meaningful, long-term recovery.

Our residence provides a spacious, comfortable setting with thoughtfully designed common areas that encourage connection, accountability, and growth. Residents enjoy a welcoming kitchen, structured communal living spaces, reliable high-speed internet, and an atmosphere that balances independence with responsibility. More than the physical amenities, what truly distinguishes By the Sea Recovery is the safe, structured, and supportive culture we maintain.

We believe sober living should be more than a place to stay—it should be a structured foundation for rebuilding a life.


Structure. Accountability. Community.

By the Sea Recovery provides structured sober housing for men who are transitioning from detox, residential treatment, or outpatient programs. We emphasize accountability, routine, and personal responsibility while fostering peer support and community connection.

For clients who require clinical support, our affiliated treatment program, Present Moments Recovery, provides comprehensive addiction treatment services in Carlsbad, including detox coordination, residential care, outpatient programming, and evidence-based therapy. This integrated continuum of care allows residents to move seamlessly from treatment into sober living while maintaining therapeutic momentum.

Each resident works within a structured framework that supports:

  • Continued engagement in treatment or outpatient care

  • Regular recovery meetings and peer accountability

  • Employment or educational goals

  • Development of life skills and healthy daily routines

  • Physical wellness through exercise and coastal outdoor living


Mind, Body, and Lifestyle Stability

At By the Sea Recovery, we focus on rebuilding stability across all areas of life—mentally, physically, socially, and professionally. Our structured sober living model encourages men to:

  • Establish consistent daily routines

  • Develop self-discipline and personal accountability

  • Strengthen communication and interpersonal skills

  • Build a healthy recovery network in San Diego

  • Transition confidently toward long-term independence

Our proximity to the coast offers residents access to nature, movement, and balance—an important component of sustainable recovery.


A Seamless Transition from Treatment to Independent Living

Whether entering sober living directly after detox or residential treatment at Present Moments Recovery, or stepping down from another program in San Diego, By the Sea Recovery offers a stable, structured environment designed to support continued progress.

We serve men throughout Carlsbad, Oceanside, Encinitas, Solana Beach, Del Mar, Rancho Santa Fe, Vista, San Marcos, Escondido, and greater San Diego County, providing a trusted sober living option for families, professionals, and referring treatment centers seeking a safe, accountable housing solution.
