2/19/2007
Oceanside is a thriving beach community and is is home to various tributes to the Pacific Ocean like the Oceanside Municipal Pier (the longest all wood pier on the west coast), the Oceanside Harbor and Marina (offering a variety of water sports like jet skiing, scuba diving, boat rentals, and whale watching excursions), and the California Surf Museum (surfing-related memorabilia and exhibitions).
Away from the beach Oceanside is rich in great site-seeing and family activities like the historic Mission at San Luis Rey and Heritage Park (featuring guided tours and a gift shop), the weekly farmer's market (with fresh produce, flowers, and local art), and numerous golf courses and parks, even a dog park. Further family activities can also be found a short drive away - with Legoland, the San Diego Wild Animal Park and Zoo, and Sea World within a short distance.
