The annual SURFMonkey event in Oceanside CA has something for everyone at the beach. The 5K run goes along The Strand up on the Pier and then down the beach and returns at the Historic Bandshell for a picture finish. The run, swim paddle event is a moving beach festival. If you missed it this year then mark next August for its return.
Some of us locals have been cruising The Strand six we could sip up in a car. I enjoy it anytime of the year. The beach is full of surf camps and kids as well as families camping out for a long sunny day. You can't get more picturesque that having the Pier as your backdrop. The present Pier is the latest rendition of our first Pier that was finished before we incorporated as a city in 1888. Enjoy the cruise which is just blocks from the 101 Cafe.
The 101 Cafe is blessed with cool rides everyday. We will try to document more for your enjoyment. We do a new T-shirt design each year and will be looking for just the right vehicles to put into our design. Bring your ride down and take a photo of it and either leave it at the Cafe or email it to OsideNow@gmail.com
See you at the Cafe...
Being a Local I have cruised Oceanside's Beaches since I was small. Of course the ultimate cruise is along The Strand. No matter what time of year it is there is always the beauty of the blue Pacific and people enjoying the sun and surf. Riding, jogging, walking or laying on the sand it is people watching at its best.
See you at the Beach...
