Oceanside

Oceanside lies along California’s Pacific coastline, where broad sandy beaches meet a low, built-up shore at the northern edge of San Diego County. The San Luis Rey River reaches the ocean just north of the city, while Oceanside Harbor adds a protected waterfront of marinas and breakwaters. Oceanside Pier, extending nearly 600 metres into the Pacific, is a longstanding focal point for fishing, walks and surf watching. Inland, Mission San Luis Rey de Francia was founded in 1798 and remains an important reminder of California’s Spanish mission era. The California Surf Museum reflects a culture shaped by the local breaks and the coast. Discover how Oceanside connects with coastal Southern California by browsing nearby webcams.
