Part of what makes Oceanside unique among the miles of coastline in California is the quaint harbor. This week we are hosts to some tall ships and are sending off the Lynx for a 5 year stint to the east coast. November 7 & 8 are the official Tall Ship Festival Days in Oceanside this year. Admission is free and there will be both pirates and mermaids.
