Oceanside, California

Located just north of San Diego, Oceanside is a fantastic beach resort area which has been heavily influence by Camp Pendleton. It's population of just over 170,00 enjoys the finest Southern California lifestyle in an ethnically and economically diverse area. When you start your search for an Oceanside apartment, keep in mind that a car is necessary for both pleasure and commuting to work.

Little Surfer Girl

Culturally, Oceanside is great mix of both American and Mexican cultures. The Day of the Dead celebration is a wonderful Mexican tradition which includes carnivals, dances, and street fairs. The Oceanside Pier has been rebuilt six times in history and each incarnation brings a new aspect to beach fun. The California Surf Museum is located here so expect that the waters are great for surfing. For major cultural venues, Oceanside's location halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego make it close to so many world class places that you'll always have choices if the beach isn't enough for you.

Breakfast at the Beach

Many people like to start their day at the Beach Break. There may be lines but you won't wait long for fantastic breakfast fare. Many of the local favorites are located near the beach. Places like Johnny Mananas and Dominic's are as good for the food as their patios with views. Ruby's is a classic restaurant with great views of the surfers. A little inland, you'll find any number of good ethnic places but you'll probably end up frequenting places nearer the beach. Whether you can walk or have to drive, your Oceanside apartment will keep you wanting to be near the Pacific.

Beach Partying

As with restaurants, most of the really good bars and clubs are on the beach. The Royal Dive is a great dive bar along with Bubs and the Flying Elephant are both good fixtures. Try the martinis at the Flying Elephant. You won't be disappointed. O'Sullivan's may be an Irish pub but the live music there is very good. Both McCabe's and the Ocean House have dancing on weekends but you'll find live music almost everywhere Friday and Saturdays. They know how to party at the beach in Oceanside!

  • Is Oceanside a good place for families?

    Oceanside is great for families. There are some great areas for houses, and the schools are excellent. In some neighborhoods, you'll meet a lot of military families from Camp Pendleton so there's sometimes more moving in and out than usual in some areas, but it's all good. Fantastic place to live. Love that beach!
