San Clemente Events
There's plenty to do on San Clemente's beautiful waterfront during the annual mid-summer Ocean Festival, billed as "The Greatest Show on Surf." Thousands of spectators and participants come to town on a weekend in late July for the festival and its many events, a local tradition since the mid-1970s. The Festival begins with a Saturday morning pancake breakfast, followed by family events all day, including an Ocean Art Show, Waterman and Waterwoman Competitions, and Fishing Derbies. Saturday night features the beach bbq and free concert, and Sunday's finale is the ever-popular Rubber Duck Race.
