About us
We keep things fun and low pressure with social mixers that actually let you connect think hiking through scenic trails, casual dinner nights, and weekend adventures like camping or wine tastings. These arenβt your typical awkward speed dating events. Instead, we plan thoughtful, engaging activities where conversation flows naturally and you can get to know people beyond a quick hello. Itβs all about creating space for real moments, not forced small talk.
If youβre someone who loves bringing people together, there are definitely ways to get more involved. We welcome volunteers to help plan events, greet newcomers, or even co host activities based on your interests. Some of our most active members have stepped into leadership roles over time, helping shape the vibe and direction of the group. Itβs a great way to meet people while doing something meaningful.
At the heart of Fossil Canyon Love Echo are values like authenticity, respect, and intention. We believe relationships grow best when people show up as their real selves no games, no pretense. Everyone here is looking for something serious, so thereβs a shared sense of purpose and care in how we interact. We foster a supportive space where kindness matters and connections have room to grow at a natural pace.
Weβre based in San Diego, and we love taking advantage of everything this city offers from beachside sunsets to hidden local gems. Most of our events happen within the city and surrounding areas, making it easy and convenient to join in. Whether you're new to town or have lived here your whole life, youβll find a community that feels like home.
If youβre tired of swiping through endless profiles and want to meet genuine people who are ready for real relationships, this is the place. Fossil Canyon Love Echo is more than just a singles group itβs a community of locals who are open hearted, engaged, and looking to build something lasting. Come out to an event and see how easy it can be to connect when youβre surrounded by people who are on the same page.
