With nearly four miles of coastline, the beach is a way of life in the City of Oceanside. The City’s new Coastal Zone Program aims to responsibly manage our coastal resources to benefit the community, while improving our natural habitat and resiliency against coastal storms and rising seas. Coastal ecosystems in Oceanside include sandy beaches, estuaries, kelp forests, groins and jetty reefs, associated pelagic organisms and, of course, people. Sustaining these ecosystems is critical to ocean health, while also supporting human society.
