Wow. Two words, professional and fun!!…read more Recently came here sporadically with a good friend because she purchased a paddleboarding groupon. Her other friend bailed, so I became the lucky candidate. Fine by me, I said! Not knowing what to expect. My boyfriend wanted to come along too, and George, the owner have him a reduced price which was very very nice of him so that we all three could enjoy the experience and all have fun. Let me tell you... I was blown away with how qualified and well-rounded George was and immediately felt secure since he knew exactly what he was doing! They provided us with the boards and paddles and he helped each of us get on while instructing us how to paddle and maneuver the board, before eventually leading us away. He was kind enough to help us all when we needed it, and made for such a wonderful memorable experiment by snapping photos that I'll always remember. It was difficult and scary at first, but it became easier as I conquered my fear. Now, I actually want to get better and come again! Hopefully work up to doing more on the board and hopefully without life jacket next time lol. I'm definitely bringing friends and coming back! So much fun!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!…read more I bought a Groupon for my original friend to come tag along as a Spring Break treat however she flaked! So I asked my other friend to come along and her boyfriend wanted to come try it out too. On the morning of our reservation, I was slightly bummed that it was typical Oceanside "May Gray" weather although it's March! However, I get to the place a little early and was waiting for my fashionably late friends, so I decided to go and meet George! He's a 6X World Guinness Record holder, Cycling Instructor, and Retired DEA! I'm sure I'm missing more of his accolades, as if this list wasn't intimidating enough! Nonetheless, he is NOT an intimidating person at all! After my tardy for the party friends got there, we all headed down to the dock right there in front of Jolly Roger's to get started on our paddleboarding excursion! I was slightly worried for my friend because she can only kinda swim, but there's a life jacket if needed. George took our photo and it was my turn to get on the board! I was the same nervous excited like I get on a first date, but I had my friends there too, so it was more excitement!We all get out on the water, accomplished! Then it was time to get on our feet! Oh crap was going through my mind, but I figured here we go! I took about maybe a total of 5 secs on the board before falling in! George was so nice to help me get my ass on the board, which isn't as easy as it looks, but then again I haven't worked out in a year, sooo it was a struggle! George was there the whole 20 minutes of me trying to get back on the board, but was so nice and professional because he was so worried I was going to get sick or really cold due to my whole body going in for a sea water bath! After all that's said and done, I had such a wonderful time! My friends were a little better at it than me, but that just means I have to come back again and show them up!

My first time in Oceanside and the yearly Christmas Boat Parade that takes place at the Harbor was…read morea major attraction. This year it took place on Dec. 14th starting at 7 pm. They were very well organized, the parade started on time. When the boats started the parade they kept going, making the loop a few times so you won't miss any! There are many points where you can watch it, you can rent boats as well or have dinner or coffee at various restaurants or coffee shops at the harbor! People are serious about the parade here, they come and park early, so plan accordingly! It can get breezy so wear a few layers. They sell hot chocolate, but at $5 it seemed overpriced! Otherwise, the boats are beautifully decorated, they keep things going and it's a great Christmas activity. It can't get more festive than this!

We easily found parking which I hear is not always the case. We climbed to steps to the main entrance (although I heard there was an elevator, I didn't see it). It was all decked out for the 4th. We ordered drinks and the staff were friendly enough. They have a popcorn machine so we grabbed a scoop of popcorn and found seats outside. It was a beautiful day and we had a nice view of the harbor. There was a band playing and people were dancing, enjoying the holiday. Definitely a festive atmosphere. The have food that looks and smells good but we weren't hungry. It's not a "fancy" yacht club by any means but it is down home and welcoming and a great spot to grab a drink and a meal and socialize. I hope I'm invited back.

On 8 Aug 15, the weather was awesome, so my son and I decided to rent a few wave runners. We were…read moreat first apprehensive about the prices, but went for it anyways. The staff was awesome and were very accommodating. We rented two skis for one hour. We had thought about renting for two hours and if we had more time, we would have! The staff went over all the rules, equipment, areas to ride, etc. handed out a few life jackets and we headed out. My son had never ridden one before, but is very familiar with boating and motorcycles. My daughter rode with me! We went out past the jetty and it was on!!! Riding in the ocean and warm water of Del Mar was awesome!! Catching air off waves was intense!! What a ride!! We even saw a total of 5 Dolphins off Del Mar beach! As our time was up, the staff was there waiting to pick us up and took care of us again. Great service!! Thank you Side notes/Recommendations: Don't ride near the shore off the Oceanside Beaches. If you're between the end of the pier and the beach, you're too close! We were warned by the patrol boat! Riding in the ocean, your hands/finger tips get numb. Might try some wake boarding gloves? Also, the salt water will constantly splash in your face and eyes, if you're having fun! If you have sunglasses, bring a strap, because you will lose them! I would almost recommend some sort of goggles instead!! And lastly, a few other other things. Get a Waterproof GoPro to record the ride and a waterproof case for your IPhone, ID's, Etc. The mini PX does no have them! Just go for it!!! It's worth the money!! Have fun enjoy the ride!! We will be back!! The only reason this is not 5 stars is the launch area is so far from the rental. You might be able to get a ride with staff, but prepare to follow them and park. Might need a hide a key, or risk taking the keys with you on the ride?

The local police towed in broken down ski. The workers could not give refunds, only voucher for another day. Good thing for credit cards, you can cancel charges. Could have just been the two that day, but military bases in other places I have gone require better service of their contractors. Thoroughly inspect everything before taking out a jet ski. It may have been better if they had included some rope in the storage bins too.
