Tips
- Mind the parking. Some spots have stricter rules than others, and a ticket is the last thing you want cutting into your beach day: https://www.ci.oceanside.ca.us/government/public-works/maintenance-operations-division/parking-enforcement/summertime-beach-parking
- Catch golden hour and incredible sunset at The Rooftop Bar. Reserve a table in advance, as spots are difficult to come by.
- Walk the Municipal Pier and sample fresh seafood. Do not miss the Top Gun House, the iconic landmark from the 1986 film.
