Things to Do in Oceanside

This community is ideal for watersports; it's right there in the name! Oceanside hotels make it easy for you to dive right into the Pacific, where you can sport fish, scuba dive or skydive if you are particularly adventurous (or would like to be). To keep up your tan, just lie out on the sand of Harbor Beach and enjoy the California rays. Don't be surprised if the kayaks catch your eye or you get a hankering for fish and chips!

If there's a child in your life (or in your heart), build sandcastles on the beach. You can also plan your Oceanside holiday around visiting LEGOLAND, a nearby amusement park dedicated to the famous building blocks. The park's attractions include rides, shopping, dining and an on-site aquarium, so there's lots of opportunity to snap selfies!

Ready to kick back and relax? Visit the wooden boardwalk of the historic Oceanside Pier, where you can fish without a license. The pier is a pleasant spot for a walk, to watch the sunset or buy food. Stop by the Thursday morning farmers market nearby to stock up on organic foods, local crafts and ready-to-eat hot and cold items.

Getting to & Around Oceanside

Oceanside has a central transit hub for regional and local trains. In addition to public transport, you can rent a bicycle to make your way around the city and to explore its many natural areas.
