Oceanside is attempting to tap into the most cutting edge innovation and technology from around the world in an effort to save its beaches from erosion.
While it was previously possible to walk the entire coastline from the north side of the city to Carlsbad, it's now no longer feasible to stroll along the sand in some parts of Oceanside, especially south of the pier.
In 2021, Oceanside made headlines when it announced a controversial plan to place large groins in the ocean, which are structures meant to catch the sand and stop it from drifting further south. However, this created an uproar in neighboring cities, with Carlsbad, Solana Beach and Del Mar all formally opposed.
“The city took a step back and said 'OK, we heard you.' We heard the region. We heard the community. There was a desire to have more innovation used, something new,” he said.
