Good News for Oceanside Harbor and Visitors
The much anticipated bridge linking North Oceanside to Oceanside Harbor is slated to begin construction shortly. This will mean improved access for all including residents and visitors to North Coast Village. At it's completion, the bridge will allow the current causeway to be opened and the San Luis Rey River to run free to the ocean!

Construction of Bridge to Begin Soon
City of Oceanside 10/09/2006
The anticipated construction of the Pacific Street Bridge is about to get underway. When completed, the bridge will provide a safe and attractive crossing for motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians, and will be able to withstand the worst of storms. This is good news for businesses and residents who live and work on the Harbor side of the city.
Construction will begin on October 30, 2006 and is scheduled to be completed in October 2008. During this two year period, segments of some parking lots will be closed resulting in parking displacements, and Harbor Drive will be realigned.
To minimize impacts on the residential and business community, the construction will be staged around key events, and complimentary shuttle service will be provided. During off-peak periods (October through May 15th) the shuttle will run from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Saturday and Sunday, and during peak periods (May 15th through October 5th) it will run Thursday – Sunday from 10:00 to 8:00 pm making eight stops along the way with a 15 minute turn-around.
The City will also be implementing a proactive outreach effort to encourage continued shopping and dining in the Marina area during the construction phase of the project.
If you need additional information or have a concern, please call Maryam Babaki, City of Oceanside Project Manager, at 760-435-5090 or email at mbabaki@ci.oceanside.ca.us."

Oceanside Harbor Dining - Oceanside California - Monteray Bay Canners
One of the advantages of having to do maintenance on my Oceanside CA Vacation Rental is hunting for new places to eat while visiting Oceanside. This time I actually had a little time to enjoy a new (to me) restaurant in the harbor with my mom.
Since my mom moved to southern CA a little more than a year ago, we try to make it a weekly habit to have lunch together near our south Orange County homes. She came with me on this sunny weekday to deliver some new deck chairs and other vacation rental oriented chores - my bribe was lunch.
Mom's first impression as we rounded the corner and glimpsed the harbor was "Wow! That's pretty." How could I not take her to one of the restaurants in the harbor after that? Rockin' Baja Lobster? Been there - good food but not much of a view. Jolly Roger? She's got one in Dana Point Harbor. Joe's Crab Shack? Good view, but not my favorite food. Monteray Bay Canners? Ok - why not? View & Fresh seafood.
The restaurant, Monteray Bay Canners is in the middle of the harbor with good parking. There are a decent number of tables with harbor views in the dining room, but even more in the oyster bar. The service was efficient and courteous. Mom enjoyed the Shrimp skewer lunch with pilaf and I enjoyed a lunch special mahi mahi with mango salsa and fresh veggies. The desserts looked deadly, but we were too full to splurge. The food was average - nothing to write home about, but just fine for lunch. $30 for 2.
Monteray Bay Canners, 1325 Harbor Drive North, Oceanside, CA 760-722-3474
