The low rolling hills of Pauma Valley, located in North County off Interstate 15, have been home to Native Americans for centuries. Pauma is a Luiseño word meaning "I bring water” or “a place where there is water,” in reference to the San Luis Rey River that flows through the valley.
The town of Pala grew up around the Mission San Antonio de Pala. Established in 1816 as an extension of the Mission San Luis Rey in Oceanside, it’s the only mission in the San Diego area that continues to provide services to the native population. It is open to the public, and there is a daily Mass.
