Take a Virtual Vacation to Oceanside
Hello Friends Near and Far,
We imagine you’ve been day dreaming from your living rooms, getting lost going through old vacation photos or maybe even attempting to make your backyards feel like a tropical escape…all the while thinking about the many places you would rather be than home. Or, maybe it’s been years since you’ve been spontaneous, requested some time off and planned an adventure somewhere new.
However this message may find you, we want to help. So although you might not be able to visit in person just yet, we took the liberty of booking you a virtual trip to a true SoCal beach town full of vibrant culture, gorgeous views and an O’riginal spirit of authenticity and fun! Spend the day with us as we provide a digital escape and sneak peek of what a vacation day in Oceanside looks like from sunrise to sunset. Think of these videos as views to look forward to until it’s time to travel again.
Vacations are always more enjoyable with family and friends, so be sure to chat with us on social media! We look forward to virtually scratching your vacation itch and can hardly wait until we can welcome you in person to the beautiful and sunny dream destination that is Oceanside, CA.
In the meantime, happy virtual escaping!
Love,
Oceanside
