Oceanside, Coastal city in San Diego County, United States
The expansive beaches along Oceanside's 3.5-mile coastline feature white sand and regularly scheduled lifeguard patrols throughout the swimming areas.
Mission San Luis Rey, established in 1798 by Spanish missionaries, represents the religious foundations of the region before Oceanside's incorporation in 1888.
The California Surf Museum preserves surfing heritage through exhibits of historic boards, photographs, and artifacts that document the sport's development.
The Oceanside Transit Center provides direct connections to Los Angeles and San Diego through Amtrak, Metrolink, and regional commuter services.
The wooden Oceanside Pier extends 1,942 feet into the Pacific Ocean, making it one of the longest structures of its kind on the western coast.
