Celebrity Beaches: San Clemente

San Clemente - Spanish Village by the Sea

San Clemente’s charming ambiance and Spanish-style architecture evoke images of the Mediterranean.

Drive or take the train in and enjoy the leisurely pace, pristine beaches, friendly sidewalk cafés and family activities, such as an annual sand castle contest.  Shop for antiques, custom jewelry,  designer perfumes and unique gifts along the quaint streets in this “Spanish Village by the Sea.”

Each year, nearly one million visitors head to San Clemente's world-renowned surf breaks. Trestles is one of the most populat surf areas, where even a one-mile trail doesn’t deter surfers and spectators heading for its challenging waves.
