Default Paddle tennis

Just bought a home in Bonita and plan to come down about every other month or so until I can make it full time. I am an avid racquetball player up north here and I have never played pickleball or paddle tennis, however, I understand the new paddle tennis courts are very nice and the game has a racquetball feel as you can play off the side and end fences, On my last visit to the new house, I made several trips to Sea Breeze to watch folks play this game and to my surprise, I did not see anyone playing on the four trips I made. It was very warm those days for sure but the Pickleball folks were going strong. Has this game caught on? What is the best way to get myself involved in this sport as a beginner to learn the game and to find local players? I appreciate any and all suggestions.
