[@Bill_Woo]

Great job on this. Awesome. Thorough. In the dark period of my life that I was forced to live in wretched California, my 4 favorites N to S were Newport/Corona, Oceanside, San Clemente and Black's (note, piers at all but Black's). You did a great job of capturing what enjoyment I summoned there. (BTW additional tweaks I expected, but not critcizing, were a fast motion full jaunt down the pier and back, and a peek inside the restaurant. Though I escaped SoCal long ago I wonder if the restaurant changed. I remember a tasty maybe smoky fish there - maybe it was ahi or Mahi Mahi)

[@Bill_Woo]

Ha ha!! I wrote that before the last 10 seconds of the video. It shows that you've already done Oceanside and La Jolla, making 3 of my top 4 !! I like to think, "great minds..." :) :) I expect you've also hit or will hit Malibu/Venice, thus giving us one million *and one* walking videos of those to check out now, lol. No, seriously, if you did one on those, you'd have practical and useful details that elude the other guys who video it :)

@@williamwatson4625 We moved in San Clemente in 1967. Nixon pretty much kept to himself and was pretty much a recluse but he did like to go golfing the Shorecliffs course and he would often frequent his favorite Mexican restaurant El Adobe in downtown San Juan Capistrano.

@@YellowProductions Its very helpful! You covered everything. Except I am partially handicapped. Partially because I was in a wheel chair for 4 years didn't know why. I found out why the top orthopedic hospital in the country put in a toxic metal implant that almost killed me. I recently had it taken out but still have a high level of metal toxicity. I am walking with a walker sometimes a cane. We don't know if I will walk normally again. I cant walk for very long. How far is the parking lot to the beach? Are there hills there or is it a flat surface?" What is the best option for parking for a handicapped person? (no hills not too far) I appreciate your hard work! So does my hubby! The only recent videos of San Clemente shows it a little more deserted and shut down due to the virus.

[@YellowProductions]

Hi Pinky.. theres parking right in front of the pier. You'll have to cross over the train tracks.. but thats probably the best place to start for the easiest beach access in San Clemente.

[@canyonoverlook9937]

What top 2 or 3 California coastal towns would you live in if you didn't have to commute? Some with money no object and some where there are reasonable prices if there are any with reasonable housing costs anymore. I don't get how people can afford to buy in so much of CA because the wages from what I can tell don't allow you to pay for the costs of the houses. The median price of a house is about 9-10 times the median household income. It's a shame they built the I-5 so close to the ocean. I can imagine living there or any Califorinia coastal town in 1930 through 60s. It probably was cheap through the 50's at least.

[@YellowProductions]

Laguna Beach and Santa Barbara are pretty chill

[@kaylacolgan]

I was supposed to go to California cause my mom’s friend lives down there.

[@Bill_Woo]

You have a talent for catching small details that can be huge in enjoyment vs. disappointment, for example covering the bathroom availability at Trestles. You also covered parking, but it sounds like $1.50/hour is almost given. Crap!! Very long ago I seem to remember finding free on the street... Hey, if any municipalities see this, be aware that I will forego getting out of my car or coming at all and spending $100 on your economy if I'm forced to pay $10 for parking. I hate parking costs so much that I'll walk 6 blocks in a suit to pay paltry meter rates or avoid the cost entirely. Look, charge a chunk for the closest prime parking; that ensures that spaces are available for those who don't care about the cost; they just want to be close. That's fine. On many occasions I even take that option myself. But if I'm willing to walk a ways, and pay $3 or less, you need to make that happen. If my only option is to pay $12 or $15, I'll summarily leave and drive down to your competitors. So will many other people, even though we're coming to spend $$ at a restaurant or shop. We shouldn't pay you to spend money there. It's a pretty firm rule. If you want tourists, don't design making revenue from parking. Mmmkay?! Fer Chrissakes, I've never paid a penny to park at major city Gallerias, though in expensive parts of towns. Sorry, got carried away, Chris :) That's intended for the places and attractions that scratch their heads and wonder why I and others don't come there :(

[@YellowProductions]

Hah.. me too Bill. Thats the problem with OC beaches.. I think people here are just used to paying to park. In San Diego where I was raised.. we are also insulted by beach parking fees

[@Bill_Woo]

Curious, does anyone feel icky about being at the ocean nearby to a nuclear power plant, right there up the beach? And even if you get past the notion of radiation, and assume that it's fully and constantly monitored, doesn't the innate superheating of water at such plants produce a lot of dead rotting fish? Just wondering, not saying that any of that is the actual case.

[@YellowProductions]

I haven't noticed any more rotting fish smell than anywhere else. And surfers will surf anywhere the waves are good :)
