Oceanside is a laid-back coastal city in North San Diego County where a classic wooden pier and wide sandy beaches set the tone. Marines from nearby Camp Pendleton, a growing craft-beer scene, and a surfer-heavy culture give the city its identity. It is a relaxed beach town with a strong military presence and steady year-round sunshine.
