County
Based on California DWR well completion reports. Cardiff By The Sea's average well depth is 408 feet shallower than the San Diego County average of 450 feet.
With 13 wells on record, Cardiff By The Sea has a growing well infrastructure. The wide depth range of 25 to 150 feet reflects the varied terrain and geology across Cardiff By The Sea's landscape. Shallower wells typically tap into alluvial aquifers near drainages, while deeper wells penetrate the Peninsular Ranges batholith, primarily granitic and metamorphic rock to reach more reliable water sources.
At an average depth of 42 feet, agricultural wells in Cardiff By The Sea require high-capacity pumps sized for significant lift — typically 1 to 5 HP depending on flow rate and total dynamic head. See detailed well depth data for Cardiff By The Sea →
Agricultural Water Needs in Cardiff By The Sea
Cardiff By The Sea's San Diego County location means a Mediterranean climate with dry summers that put heavy demand on irrigation wells from May through October. Agricultural wells here must be sized for sustained high-volume pumping, often 15-50 GPM from alluvial or weathered rock aquifers.
Common agricultural well setups in Cardiff By The Sea include variable frequency drives (VFDs) to match pump output to demand, storage tanks for buffer capacity, and booster systems for pressurized irrigation lines. We size every agricultural pump to the well's tested yield — oversizing wastes energy and can damage the well by drawing the water level down too fast.
