According to a liquid ejecting head, it is possible to suppress erosion of a vibrating plate by liquid, suppress generation of variation in a vibrating property, and realize a thin head. The liquid ejecting head includes a flow path formation substrate on which a pressure generation chamber communicating with nozzle openings for discharging liquid is provided, an elastic film which is provided on one surface side of the flow path formation substrate and seals the pressure generation chamber, and a piezoelectric actuator which is a pressure generation unit which is provided on the elastic film to deform the elastic film. A tantalum oxide film which is formed by atomic layer deposition is provided at least on an inner wall of the pressure generation chamber.
