Surfing and skateboarding in Oceanside
Surfing is fantastic in Oceanside, dubbed O’side by locals, and the city is beloved for its energetic beach scene and small-town feel. Just beyond downtown, skateboarders glide across the city’s many skate parks. The breezy sense of fun here is so darn appealing that many visiting surfers, skaters and beach lovers decide they want to stay. “One of the biggest things about Downtown Oceanside is the growth it’s been experiencing in just the last five years or so,” Chris Erickson, longtime North County San Diego resident and Realtor with the Beach Life Group of Compass. “It’s a really up-and-coming area and a great place if you want to be able to walk to the beach and the rest of downtown.”
Surfing the Downtown Oceanside pier has been an activity for decades.

Fish from the pier and walk the Strand
Anglers cast from the pier at Oceanside Beach while other locals stroll the Strand, a one-mile multi-use path lined with beach cottages and food vendors. The Strand plays host to Iron Man competitions and local races, including the Thanksgiving Turkey Trot. The outdoor amphitheater here, named for the late Junior Seau, a linebacker with the San Diego Chargers and a graduate of Oceanside High, screens free movies and hosts live music. The USA Surfing Championships and other surfing competitions take place beside the pier. Greater Oceanside is home to five city-run skateparks, which offer skateboarding classes. Popular Martin Luther King Skateboard Park has rails, walls and a skate pool.
Locals can fish the Downtown Oceanside pier for their dinner.

Downtown hosts the weekly Sunset Market
On Thursday nights tourists and locals alike stroll beneath twinkling lights during the Sunset Market on Pier View Way. Spanning four blocks, this market is a reliably good party, and it often embraces a theme, from Mardi Gras to Authors Night. Vendors sell international cuisine, eclectic gifts and clothing while musicians keep the vibe upbeat. The Oceanside Morning Farmers Market is held Thursday mornings from 9am to 1pm, also on Pier View Way.

Coffee, beer and tacos at the Tremont Collective
With surfers catching waves, wildlife watchers ambling along the pier and joggers puffing along the Strand, there's not much need to wander beyond the oceanfront. Some older buildings, however, have been repurposed into restaurants and shops, and they now complement the oceanfront action. One of these, the new Tremont Collective, is a hotspot. “Tremont’s the go-to where you’ll find a coffee shop, brewery tasting room and some really great birria tacos all in one place.” Nearby, Pacific Coast Spirits and Kitchen produces small-batch whisky and brandy while Breakwater Brewing Company serves pizza and craft beer. The Walmart Neighborhood Market sells a variety of groceries.

Ride the Rails to O’side
With sidewalks crisscrossing downtown and most homes within a mile of the beach, Downtown Oceanside is pedestrian friendly, and the mile-long Strand is open to walkers and cyclists alike.

Eating pie at the Top Gun House
Built in 1888 as a vacation cottage, the dapper Queen Anne house near the pier on North Pacific Street made several appearances in the original Top Gun movie. A sign marks its location, which is now home to the dessert-selling High-Pie, part of the Mission Pacific Hotel. The Camp Pendleton Marine Corps base is just two miles north of downtown.
Inside the pie shop at the Top Gun house is very unique in Downtown Oceanside.
