Guajome Regional Park is located in the coastal community of Oceanside and has a little bit of everything that San Diego County offers. A developed 33-site campground offers partial hook ups, a caravan pavilion, shade and afternoon ocean breezes. Two day use areas with new playgrounds, a basketball court and lots of green lawn are ideal for picnicking or just relaxing. Two ponds attract a wide variety of migratory birds and serve as home to a variety of fish that will test the skills of any angler. 4.5 miles of park trails meander through diverse Southern California habitats such as woodlands, chaparral, wetlands, and mixed grasslands. Wedding ceremonies can also be held in a small gazebo that overlooks the lake. To inquire about wedding services simply call the park at the number listed above. Just 8 miles from the Pacific Ocean, the park is close to many entertaining and historical points of interest. Whether you like to camp, picnic, hike, fish, bike, nature watch or plan that special ceremony, you’ll find Guajome Regional Park an ideal place to visit year round.

Dolphin and Whale Watching
e would like to welcome you aboard our spacious well equipped yacht Bueno. Join us for a leisurely sail, Santa Catalina Tours or whale watching cruise. She is meticulously maintained and designed to ensure that you will enjoy your experience while aboard in comfort and confidence. We enjoy year around sailing spotting dolphin, whales and sea life just offshore. Designed for your enjoyment, the Bueno is approximately 36 feet overall and she includes all the amenities one could ask for. Sit back and relax in the oversized fully cushioned cockpit. Enjoy the wide scoop transom with swim step that provides easy access to and from the water. A clever on deck shower with hot water allows you to rinse off after a swim. Experience first hand the feeling of coming about, or sailing downwind, floating along in comfort and confidence aboard Bueno. Witness the annual migration of the California Gray Whale as they travel south to the birthing lagoons of Mexico. These whales feed in shallow water and it is common to observe them close to our shoreline. The dolphins are very friendly and often come to our boat to say hello and ride the bow wave.

While enjoying your day in the harbor, this is a perfect spot to stop and get a nice cold ice-cream cone on a hot day or even to fulfill your sweet tooth with a nice selection candy. There are a lot of memories at this place. Nana & Pops is an ice cream and sweet shop that is located in Oceanside Harbor. The location couldn’t be more convenient because grabbing a cup of ice cream after a day at the beach is plenty of fun, especially when you are kiddie. I discovered bubble gum ice cream at this parlor and I still think of Nana & Pop’s every time I sample my favorite ice cream. This is a very cute old fashion candy shop and it is a lovely compliment to the Oceanside Harbor Village.
