FundaySunday Remote: Dana Point toward Oceanside
Old Highway Bike Path
Lets do it again! Ride along the beach through Doheny, Capistrano Beach, San Clemente, San Onofre, Camp Pendleton to Oceanside Harbor !
We start in Dana Point Harbor, ride down the coast as far as you want, then RIDE back (or go all the way & take the train from Oceanside part way back) !
The Short 20 route turns back at the County Line,
Medium 35 goes all the way & trains back to North San Clemente.
Long 40 turns back at Las Pulgas (or at the end of San Onofre State Beach for 34.5 miles).
The Long Plus 60 goes all the way down & back “EFI”.
The ride starts at the west end of Dana Point Harbor Drive in Dana Point. Park in either of the lots at the end across from each other, the one closest to the pier, or the other directly across the street.

Most of us do not hold a current BASE BIKE PASS from the USMC, so we will ride the freeway shoulder between Las Pulgas and Harbor Drive. It’s legal, faster, shorter, safer, but noisier.
See Base Pass info here.
After ride treat on the way back at Dana Point Harbor - We like to stop at the Scoop Deck inside Coffee Importers for a great ice cream…
